Default IFR with a VFR GPS

Are you seriously going to maintain that the risk in flying IFR with a VFR
GPS is that it will cause the pilot to leave his required nav radios off and
he will then not recognize if he has drifted off the assigned airway in a
nonradar environment?


Yes, I am going to maintain that premise because even more unthinkable,
someone was actually killed flying a GPS approach with nothing but a VFR
GPS. If someone was crazy enough to do that, then I certainly do not have
a problem believing that someone might attempt navigation on an assigned
airway with nothing but a VFR GPS.
