A VOR approach gives you accurate guidance by following specific VOR radials. Unlike an Instrument Landing System (ILS), a VOR approach only provides horizontal guidance. So, you must manage the descent and altitude using the VORs published step-down fixes and minimum descent altitudes (MDAs). Initial approach altitude.
