Have to say, if the crew knew of concerns on accuracy of charts and mapping systems it's even more surprising they chose a 10nm approach path at 200ft at night. Minimising low altitude transit would seem to be even more prudent to me. Radar may have supposed to be the primary navigation at such a time but clearly that had big risks too.
