Straight-ins at uncontrolled airports?
I haven't flown in a while, but am in the market for a used plane.
I recalling hearing somewhere that straight-in approaches are now approved at uncontrolled airports. Is this correct? Danny Deger

They've never been against any regulation, but are not necessarily the best way to enter a pattern. Karl

It may not, however, be the best way to arrive. YMMV, Jay Beckman PP-ASEL Chandler, AZ

AFAIK the recommended procedures for approaching and landing at uncontrolled airports have not changed in a long time. Straight in approaches have always been acceptable as long as you can do it safely, maintain visual, give right of way to lower aircraft, be aware of A/C in the patten, announce your position/intentions, etc. etc. etc. It is highly recommended to do a standard pattern entry to the downwind leg of the pattern. When you know traffic is very light or non existant a straight in approach can be very efficient.

An aircraft on final has the right-of-way.
