I think the "cowboy approach" at Telluride, CO. The airport is in a boxed canyon with 14er's all around and the runway is on the side of a mountain in a "U" shape. 150' lower in the middle than at the thresholds. anyway, you come over the top at 16,000 drop flaps and gear, turn left on down wind dropping out of the sky in a canyon, buzz Oprah's house flaps 35 while on base to final still banked until over the threshold, don't over shoot!

There is also the "Beaver one" Approach in Amarillo, that's just a vector to runway 4 over the Strip club so close that you can read the marquee sign
 
DCA

LDA DME with GS 19 Circle 22.


"stabilized approach criteria."

What is that?

That's the thing that will keep you alive when you transition to a swept wing airplane.

You obviously missed the humor involved in dealing with approaches into DCA. Sorry that you did not get the humor, I shall include LeMAC data in further posts.

Some friends of mine saw it when they were on short final there.

They went, and apparently it is some bolted together mobile homes, and at the time they were there, there was a midget and a pregnant woman stripping
