For some reason, I've always thought that if you file a flight plan to an airport without an approach, you have to file an alternate, regardless of the weather. I'm sending a CFII to his checkride this weekend and while working on prep for his oral the subject came up and after both of us read through the reg 50 times we decided I must be wrong. Right?
I do understand the reg that if you file an airport without an approach as your alternate, then the weather must be good enough to descend from MEA/OROCA and land visually.
