the River Visual to RW 19 at DCA


:)  I saw that one in an article written by a pilot called something like, "Approaches Passengers Should Avoid." Pretty sensationalized, I suspect, but perhaps things are a little trickier nowadays than pre--911 times?

But, yes, that is a really fun one. I found out the hard way about the offset localizer at JFK in one night flight in the L1011. The approaches approaches are the best part of flying, although SIDS keep you busy, too, especially in the old airplanes, relying on radio navigation. I bet you appreciated two extra heads and sets of hands!
