Bloggs, you're like my wife, "You may be right, but that's not what I meant. Show me more."
Not at all. The claim's been made. I am interested in examples, that's all.

I agree that one is not co-incident, but the discussion's about ILS vs PAPI, OK465.

Still, on that example, I would have thought visual/PAPI slopes would be more accurate than RNP VNAV, so why the steep PAPI, I wonder? Perhaps the 5268 obstacle affects the PAPI tolerances but not the RNP...

Good luck trying to follow, in any meaningful aeroplane, a 4° PAPI at 5000ft AMSL!
