Excuse me writing in English, but I have a quick question. In the French AIP Aerodrome charts there is the term MVL. Is this a Circling Approach and on the Aerodrome Chart in the AIP in the Minima box does MVL means Circling Minima?

Merci Beaucoup

Hi,

MVL = Manoeuvres à vue libres
Visual manoeuvring whithout prescribed track

as opposed to MVI (MVI Manoeuvres à vue imposées: Visual manoeuvring with prescribed track).

So MVL is a circle to land using the circling minima.
