2 NDB in USSR
As stated:
Just line up the needles and its as good as a LOC......
The old Russian system, and it worked very very well.
Twice in Moscow actually made the 2 NDB approach, its very very precise.
Also the +/-2nm position for the Inner Marker, is traditional....missed approach point, as well as a VRP...in olde worlde flying.
Does the reference to 8nm, refer to the VOR/DME and not distance to threashold, (as per plate)..
A few years ago, when conducting an approach here, a beautiful clean night thank goodness, we descended to join the procedure, and at 4000ft +/- there was a fantastic temperature inversion, the AT logic could not cope with a dramatic change in temperate, and just went to idle......
