2. With the GS out of service there is no Vertical guidance associated with the approach, apart from the PAPIs.
From what distance is PAPI clearly visible at that time of day, and when coming in on that touted 14 (or 17?) mile long final?

(Me too was wondering if one of those pre-prepared, charted visuals had been called for, but maybe so far no info?)
