Complete rubbish... People rather are more reluctant to hand fly because they are tired so generally on the line it is far easier to let 'George' do the flying!

you instead create convoluted procedures that nobody understands to do the most basic thing; flying the plane and looking outside.
But you are correct here. The Lido plate for the VOR Canarsie approach shows the racetrack and hotel etc; interestingly the RNAV X does not show any visual markers which completely defeats the whole 'visual segment' idea! The way the approach is meant to be flown is a horses arse...
