Steep approach definition and regulations

Sigh!

Apparently, I have been looking in all the wrong places for the definition and regualtion of steep approaches. Recently a collegue and I discussed the subject and since I like not only to be right, but also to gloat, I'm looking for documentation.

I claimed that any approach with an angle beyond 4,5degrees was a steep approach, he claimed it was beyond 5,5. Who is right? Where can we find documentation (EU OPS)?

Since the pprune community has all answers, I hope for a quick reply

Brgds,
Flaps
