Thanks a lot for the RNP chart.
We used to fly into KTM with A310/330/340 on the VOR APP 02 which was much steeper but more aligned with the runway. The transition from 6degree to 3degree(or so) 'glideslope' at the minimum was hairy in marginal weather.
But basically straightforward with being (almost) aligned with the runway far out. I do not know if the curved RNP app which gives a lower minimum does not make the approach trickier. Does anybody know which approach they did?
