This was all tied to horizontal and vertical profiles in Civil 3D coupled with Google Earth for the terrain.
The FAA has some spreadsheets you may want to look at, 8260.52_v7.4.xls,
That sounds fascinating, it would be very interesting to see the studies on the approach designs for NZQN.
Are you able to point me towards the FAA xls? I am having trouble finding it... Also any xls you could share that I might be able to get some idea for layout and so on would be great.
