Default Interesting "ILS or RNAV" procedure

Hallelujah! I've been hoping for approaches like that for a long time.
Much more efficient transitions to the final approach course. Actually,
we've been flying these kind of things for quite some time (VMC of
course!!!), just never figured that we'd see an "official" version.

Happy Flying!

You can fly any transition in the database to an ILS under IFR/IMC.
They are overlays of ground-based transitions so sometimes they are not
all that great. Transitions designed for RNAV to the localizer will be
a whole lot better.
