Enroute, I can't always be sure what would be considered my primary nav

why I started this thread.

As I wrote, the FAA doesn't define "primary" in the PC/G and it's not
defined in 14 CFR 1.1.

If there is a need for you to have a definitive answer, you could try
writing the FAA Chief Counsel. But there may be no answer forthcoming
unless there is some operational reason to come up with one.

And, in the case of a non-commercial Part 91 small aircraft flight, such as
it seems you are describing, I don't see an operational reason to answer
that question.

If the FAA says I can't use a VFR GPS as my primary nav source, that
indicates to me that they must have a way of defining it, or at least expect
me to be able to, although without telling me how. But I guess I'm expecting
logic from a government agency.
