Check out the River Visual 2 to KHFD.
RADAR required. Minimums are 3000/5
A) Why use it? If the minimums are met I don't understand why you would need it I suspect its due to the MSA. but the airport is practically at sea level. I guess there would be an occasion when there really would be a 100 -200' difference in the ceiling. Then again it is a published "Visual Approach" Is the field that hard to find?
What is really interesting is that the Jepp chart which I can't post shows a straight in approach along a course of 005 degrees. The NOA chart has you following the same route until you get to the Putnam bridge then you follow curves in the river.
Can you log a "Visual approach" such as this as an instrument approach?
