I recently notice on several RNAV (GPS) approch plates the notation "procedure NA for arrivals on XXX VOR/DME radials 298 CW 329." These radials are airways. This VOR is the IAF for the approach. There are LOC and NDB approachs to the same runway that have identical transitions from this VOR. Only the RNAV (GPS) approach has this note. The turn onto the transition is more than a 90' turn.
My theory is that the VOR is a flyover waypoint, and the protected airspace on the airways is greater than on the transition, which could allow an overshoot making the turn.
Why is this approach not authorized from these airways?
