I am hearing allot of what...not allot of why some approaches are demanding...some ideas...
Work backwards from a sunny VFR day, flat farm land, no hills, a missed could go any direction, you have fuel to fly anywhere..
Now your flying an approach that has multiple navigational turns, least amount of info...NDB for instance, where you have to make a final turn at the marker for final...so you get that wrong........mountains all over...low on fuel, you can only miss in a very particular direction and alt, and you have to enter a hold...and sit there...no radar, no one is babysitting you...your flying a plane that can't get above the ice, and your picking up ice...your by yourself...the gear on your plane is minimal...no dme, all timed, no gps...you radios suck...your climbing at 500 fpm in the mountains...you have passengers nagging you....it's very loud and your not pressurized, so your ears are popping all over the place.....now you just lost and engine...your at 5000 ft and that's about all you can do single engine...you got go back down..because your not getting over the hills...so now you gotta fly that approach below mins..it's a one way trip, so you gotta get this right...so you come out of the hold doing 120 kts at 6000 ft, barely holding alt...weather just went down to 500ft on and approach that has the MDA at 1200 ft...
Have fun...
