What glidepath!

NDB approaches are non precision, there may be a list of advisory altitudes (or heights), there may be minimum altitudes (or heights) at certain points and then there will be a Minimum descent altitude below which no part of the aircraft may pass unless the appropriate visual references are in sight.


Max lateral deviation is 5 degrees, though I can't lay my hand on the exact reference for that as I'm in the garden!
