displayed as a glideslope


Just took a "flight" using the GNS400W simulator (the GNS430 with WAAS)
becasue I wanted to see if the new WAAS upgrade for the 430/530 would do
this. I flew both a VOR approach and an RNAV/GPS approach that only had
LNAV minimums.

For the VOR approach the GPS did not provide a glideslope, but for the
RNAV/GPS approach into Weedsport, NY (B16 - RNAV/GPS 28):

the GPS went into LNAV+V mode and a glideslope indicators on the HSI went
live, as you can see he
