not on that runway! Furthermore, in some circumstances, approaching MEL from the east lines you up with runway 27 at Essendon, which has the same runway configuration as MEL - a trap waiting for the unwary, for sure.

I suspect that the reason that an ILS has not been installed is that when the wind is out of the north it is normally very clear.
