    Just a wild a-- guess but I would bet on a straight in over the ocean on runway 12.  If not straight in, they can do their velocity bleed offs over the ocean and still bring it in on 12.
     
    I would also be surprised if they are using MLS, I bet it will be on a GPS glideslope just as soon as it gets aerodynamic.
     
    I can't imagine the AF taking a chance and flying a typical "shuttle" approach over populated area.
