Steve, bless his heart, just likes being a little bit obtuse from time to
time. I love his posts. He is conveniently ignoring the "unless otherwise
authorized" clause in the reg. The 45 degree entry is "otherwise
authorized." The AIM specifically states that pilots following the
recommendations in it provide a safe harbor against violation of the
regulations and that all procedures in it are approved by the Administrator.
The AIM is also signed by the Administrator saying that the procedures in it
are authorized.
