Question

"Re map shift, I very much doubt whether any authority would allow NPAs to be flown today in non-GPS augmented aeroplanes without stringent monitoring of the raw data, if at all."

I don't know about other countries, but the FAA allows an NPA such as BHM LOC 18 the be flown by non-GPS augmented airplanes 365 days of the year, weather and wind permitting.
