Cool. How do I get me one of those?



You look at a sectional of that area and plot a course. Input
appropriate points into your GPS unit flight plan. With each point is
an associated minimum altitude. Flight check in VFR conditions before
use. Verify that you won't kill anyone on the ground if off course.
Don't carry passengers when in IMC conditions flying the approach. Of
course this would be "illegal."


Nor to mention the topographical resolution of a sectional doesn't quite
cut it.
