Default Full procedure versu vectors

Can you elaborate on why you feel the full precure is easier than
vectors


It is more predictable because it's published. No chance of miscommunication
on vectors. No constantly adjusting the heading bug. No chance of the
controller bringing you around too close for an automatic glideslope couple.

Vectors is very easy. But letting the GPS steering do the full approach and
autocouple the WAAS glideslope is even easier.

when you request the full procedure? I get the feeling that they would
rather vector me on the ILS than have me shoot a GPS full approach.

I like the GPS full approach but I don't want to be irritating
controllers
and mucking up things by doing so.
