wrote: What is the reasoning behind the required course reversal in many approaches? It's hard to believe that I will be safer flying the racetrack and then the approach to the runway than simply flying to the IAF and proceeding inbound - especially with GPS guidance. I have no problem flying the full published course, done it many times, I'm just curious why they are designed that way. Michael Michael, Others have given you some good answers. However, the reasoning often depends on the particular approach. So it would be useful if you could post a reference to a procedure about which you have a question.
