With all the talk about the GNS80 and the Garmin 430 having VNAV and
LAAS capability, I would like to know something. Are there any actual
approaches in use that one can fly, today, that use these features? Do
you get vertical guidance from GPS derived altitude or is it vertical
guidance from altimeter derived altitude? Where are these approaches?


Doug,

I assume you meant WAAS, not LAAS. I'm showing 261 WAAS VNAV
approaches as of August 5th update cycle. 237 are LNAV/VNAV minima and
24 are LPV minima. AVN's Website has good info:
