737NG use of VNAV

Hi guys, only a question:

From FCTM Rev 9 (page 5.41)

"VNAV should be used only for approaches that have one of the following features:
1) a publish GP angle on the LEGS page for the final approach end of the runway.
2) an RWxx waypoint coincident with the approach end of the runway.
3) a missed approach waypoint before the approach end of the runway (MXxx).

These features permit construction of normal glide path. VOR APROACHES WITH THE MISSED APPROACH POINT ON THE LEGS PAGE BEYOND THE RUNWAY THRESHOLD AND CIRCLING ONLY APROACHES DO NOT HAVE THESE FEATURES."


So, we should fly those approaches which have the missed aproach point beyond the runway threshold with V/S only?


Thanks
