Default VOR approach SMO

Do you have an instrument rating?

Help me understand how DME permits you to descent to 680 "far before CULVE."

With 800/3 you'll be way outside CULVE when you see the runway.


No, with 800 foot ceiling you will be at 1120 when at CULVE, making it
hard to see the runway through the clouds.
