At Ansett in the 70's I remember reading an internal incident report from a B727(?) Captain that said words to the effect "If you use the International DME approach plate for xx at Cairns while using the Australian DME you will hit the summit of XXXX exactly 250 ft below the summit". - his F/O had made a slight mistake.
