Thanks again for everybody's input. I think if pilot's here could answer this 'hypothetical' situation, I'd better understand the situation.

For this, throw the rules and regulations out the window. You're approaching this airport from the northwest from an airport about 110 nautical miles away, coming up in a few miles on the KLP NDB, with just enough fuel to make it to this airport, heading for runway 12 (119 degrees). One thing that would be different for this situation is when you crossed KLP, you were fully configured for landing, but all you have is the RMI with one ADF receiver, INS, and a compass. You have the same weather conditions with overcast around 2,000', the top of which is obscuring the mountains. Winds at 4,000' @ 25 kts from 160. You have the same two NDBs, KLP 12 miles from the airport and CV 2 miles from the airport. You don't have enough fuel to do a missed approach. How would you navigate to the airport?
