Default VOR approach SMO

No.

You can be 6.7 miles out at 680/DME.

Read and UNDERSTAND the chart

down to 680 outside CULVE, and have 3 miles to descend 505 feet. Any jet

No, you misread the chart. It is not 3 miles from CULVE, its about 1/2
that. The distances you are looking at are *NOT* the distances to the
threshold, those are to the DME, on the other side of the field.
