Seems if you have a GPS with a nice big display, that you'd want to

have
that up for situational awarness and load the ILS for backup/reference.
Then it would be obvious if you were flying off course.


Do you mean making the last leg of the GPS Flight Plan aligned with
the localiser?

There are no official GPS approaches here in the UK but the KLN94B
does contain some things e.g. approach fixes.

Peter, In the US, the new KLN94 GPS has all the non-gps approaches in

it's
database for reference. So you can load an ILS (you get a disclaimer that
it's only to be used as reference) and use it as situational awareness.

But
if you need a substitute for DME, the KLN94 manual says you should use the
ILS identifier (like KYIP) and load it from the intersection page of the

GPS

I think you mean "...(like IYIP)..." here...
