What's the point of the CVO NDB 17? It's an off-airport NDB approach
to a runway that also has ILS, VOR and GPS approaches, all with lower
minimums. Like all but one other approach (a GPS approach from the
south) it has a missed approach that takes you to an intersection hold
about 9 miles to the east.

So if all you have is an NDB, you still can't shoot this approach without
alternate missed instructions. Why wouldn't they just put the missed
approach hold at the NDB?
