The KLN89B and KLN94 are apparently two such units - their supplement
introduction states "NOTE: A current database is required by
regulation in order to use the (blah) GPS system for non-precision
approaches".


Minus the words "by regulation," my Garmin GNS430 GPS also has such as
restriction in the POH supplement.

I recall reading here that at least one other GNS430 owner did not have
such a restriction in his supplement. One possible explanation may be that
my unit, as purchased by the previous owner of the aircraft, was one of the
first GNS430s available. Perhaps Garmin and/or the FAA loosened that
restriction as time went on.
