The IGS13 to the old VHHH. This is at the missed approach point of 660 feet with 700 OVC and 1/2 visibility.

I don't think we had any curved approach lights for DCA.

We did have them for an approach into JFK, perhaps called the Carnise (spl.) approach to the Southeast.

Dux, concur with you, that Canarsie appraoch as curved lits. The checkerboard appraoch surely was a far better deal than that old CC-Wagaonslands ADF (NDB) appraoch witha 90 egree turn.
