If there isn’t something wrong with the way GPS NPA approaches in Australia are designed then can someone please tell me why there is a ban at my airline (and I assume others) doing such an approach in Airbus aircraft (not sure about Boeing) using “Managed” vertical guidance. This ban is world wide but the problem lies in the design of the approaches in Australia. I have seen one demonstrated in the sim for BNE rwy 19 and the bl**dy thing tries to land you several miles short in the water. I believe there are many other airports in Australia with the same problem. So far no other airports anywhere else in the world have been identified with this same problem.
