I only bring this up because many of the heavy pilots I fly with back up the Visual Approaches with the ILS however they incorrectly brief the ILS MAP in case of a missed approach. That could get you into a lot of trouble.
That's interesting. I've never not had tower instruct me what to do, but for visual would assume traffic pattern for a smaller airport that would not be vectoring. For contact approach I assume one is to do IFR missed "by default"?
