ATC vector to Rwy 07 at Kobuleti is direct, not course intercept


Recommended Posts

In doing an ILS approach from the southwest to runway 07 at Kobuleti, ATC always gives a direct vector to the airport, not a course intercept vector for the localizer. It's ok if visibility is clear for the approach but attempting this in IMC would be a problem, as you'd be unable to get on the localizer far enough out to fly a stabilised ILS approach via the localizer for 07. You have to hope you break out early enough to make unwise, radical course corrections, or go around, converting to a VFR pattern. It's odd. Can anyone comment? I know my process is not at fault; I've shot a hundred ILS approaches in the sim, but never to Kobuleti. Approaching Vaziani you get a sensible localizer intercept vector, not a direct vector to the airport.
