Might be something to do with the GAR being u/s for a while.If you are coming in from the west there is only an arrival via KRK and if you say you are "visual" from Latan (is it?) you are telling porkies.(The field is obscured by hills untill almost on the extended centerline of 35).Routing in from the North (Tigra?)you can honestly call visual and do your best Yee Har home spun approach.
Also remember that during darkness you may be "good visual" with all the nice twinkly lights ,but it's the big dark empty bit that will kill you.
By all means extend some courtesy to other users but fly the approach you are comfortable with.Keep the vegatation out of aviation.
