USN GCA (PAR) @ NPA/NDZ on VHF?

[ChuckMK23]

Heading down to Maxwell AFB next week to do some training with AF colleagues. A number of folks have never seen GCA/PAR and was hoping to fly down south to get into the GCA pattern at NAS Pensacola or South Whiting. Will be in a Cessna 206 Stationair with VHF comms only.

Can either airfield conduct GCA on VHF? Thanks in advance!

Should be fine if you can get them to give it to you. When I was instructing they’d often limit us doing multiple practice approaches at NDZ even in VFR.

Thanks! Will give it the “Ol’ college try” (to use a @mad dog phrase)
