With regards to the Jepp chart that terpster provided....

Mapt is 2.1nm further.
Notice that the MAP is a variable according to your CAT. (MAP at VOR OR...) as an example the CAT C 140kts MAP is 0.54nm from the NDB

Crunching the numbers, 3.03° from LENIZ to 53ft over the threshold takes you past GRZ NDB at 2267ft and GRZ VOR at 1592ft.
the straight in has one cross and maintain 3500 from LENIZ, then somehow dive in at 3.03° from DME6...

I note at the bottom of the chart that recent changes have been made to the procedure. From what I can tell, the chart is not correct as virtually none of these numbers add up.... a quick look at the obstacles charted shows you CANNOT safely use this GPA (looks like a very bad chart! )

this is an older chart which appears to correctly show the 5.3% GPA that we all calc'd out..
