Dave has provided the regulatory info, but the bottom line is that you can
do pretty much whatever you want to do at an uncontrolled field in VFR conditions...and sometimes people do some really weird and unexpected things. If a pilot wants to shoot a practice instrument approach of any kind to such an airport, the result will be a straight-in, which is covered by the Advisory Circular he cites. Part 91 contains all of the operational regulations you will ever need as a Part 91 pilot. Anything that is not specifically prohibited is allowed. Bob Gardner "BobKK47" wrote in message oups.com... Is there any reason, or regulation, that states that a pilot, flying VFR, is prohibited in flying a GPS approach to an uncontrolled field (assuming VFR conditions at the field), or must the pilot fly the usual pattern to land? Thanks. Bob |
