WAAS GPS approach question.
I thought the FAA approved the use of GPS for any NDB waypoint. A plane
without ADF can fly any ADF approach with a IFR approach certified GPS. GPS waypoints can also be used in lue of ADF for missed approach holds, so you can fly any approach that has "ADF required" without an ADF if you have an IFR certified GPS. "Matt Barrow" wrote in message ... "Dico" wrote in message oups.com... Hello, I read on the Garmin page that their 480 is Waas certified...so that you can fly precision approaches without an ILS... what does this mean exactly? If I'm coming into an airport with only an NDB approach, can I use the 480's capabilites to fly a precision approach and get down to a lower MDA/DH? If the airport has only an NDB approach, how are you going to fly a GPS approach of any sort? |
