Julian,

Some German airports (with class F) appear only to have GPS approaches,
which, according to the plates, require some sort of qualification. Is
there a practical way for a foreign pilot not based in Germany to get that
qualification?


Excellent question. I'm just starting on my German IR, so I don't know. I
believe it is a simple check out/endorsement from a CFI.
