Inconsistency between ILS glideslope and PAPI lights

[Vibstronium]

@N6722C

PAPI angles are based on obstruction clearance +/- 10 degrees from the runway centerline, up to 4 miles from the threshold.

The ILS provides for obstruction clearance in a 3-6 degree angle on a 3 degree glide path.

Therefore, if there are obstructions in the PAPI clearance area (e.g. a tower off to the side of the rwy) that don’t exist in the narrower ILS clearance area, the PAPI will have to be a steeper angle.

I checked the chart for EDDS ILS/LOC 25 in Navigraph; the ILS glidescope is listed as 3 degrees, and there’s no warning that the PAPI lights are not coincident with the ILS (which there usually is if they’re different – unless that’s something only American charts list and European charts don’t?).
