direct to D4 Garmin approach
Interesting. Can you tell me where that procedure is published? Because if it isn't published it's not legal. Joining final at D4 would mean being at 1300ft as you turn on to the ILS. But up to that point you'd be subject to the 10nm MSA which is 2300ft.
Vectors from Leuchars to base leg at MSA in the expectation of going visual, yes, but self-positioning to D4 below MSA? I'd like to see the evidence.
