V Ljubljani (Brnik) se uporablja "Circling RWY 13", v Mariboru bi šel "Circling RWY 15" in v Portorožu "Circling RWY 33"
Definicija Circling To Land pa je taka:
Citiram:
A circle to land maneuver is a maneuver used when a runway is not aligned to within 30 degrees of the track of the instrument approach procedure or the final approach requires 400 feet of descent (or more) per nautical mile, and therefore requires some visual maneuvering of the aircraft in the vicinity of the airport after the instrument portion of the approach is completed for the aircraft to become aligned with the runway to land.
It's very common for a circle to land maneuver be executed during a straight-in approach to a different runway, e.g. an ILS approach to one runway, followed by a low-altitude pattern flying, ending in a landing on a different runway. This way, approach procedures to one runway can be used to land on any runway at the airport, as the other runways may lack instrument procedures or their approaches cannot be used for other reasons (traffic considerations, navigation aids being out of service, etc).
Circling to land is considered more difficult and less safe than a straight-in landing, especially under Instrument meteorological conditions.
V Sloveniji pa se ga uporablja takrat, ko zaradi prevelikega hrbtnega vetra ne moreš zaključiti instrumentalnega approacha in moraš zato prihod od zaključiti vizuelno.
