This has nothing to do with nothing, but just for grins, I cranked up the Garmin trainer and flew the KPWK (Chicago/Palwaukee) ILS 16 approach from several different directions. Coming from the south, the Garmin, as expected, flew the teardrop procedure turn. Coming from the north, flying the 160 radial toward the OBK VOR (the IAF), when the Garmin reached the VOR, it reversed course and flew 340 outbound, flew the teardrop procedure turn, and flew back toward OBK. So, it would appear that, at least as far as Garmin is concerned, that the procedure turn must be flown no matter what. Live and learn... As someone who was involved in a previous life with the FAA's groping with course reversal issues, and now a user of Garmin's fine panel mount products, my hat is off to Garmin's implementations with a lot of this RNAV stuff...far beyond when a course reversal is required.
