The MVA to the left of the LOC (looking southwest) is 3200. On the other side, over the lake, it is 2300. I presume you were being vectored from the left. That's correct. I was coming in from the east, over the land. The ATC handbook requires the vector to intecept at not greater than a 30 degree angle and below the G/S. In round numbers that would be an intercept point somewhat over 3 miles prior to WAILS. There's theory, and then there's reality.  -- Peter ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =----
