I was looking at approaches with a student today and came across the following approach:
http://155.178.201.160/d-tpp/1304/09974RA.PDF
I can't figure out why it is a circling only approach? Final approach course is within 30 degrees and the descent angle is normal... what other criteria could cause this to be circling only?
In the notes section it says use another airport's altimeter setting, there is also an obstacle near the final, but those are the only possible reasons I can think of.
Thanks!
