Hmm, not to be difficult, but if you come to the attention of the FAA
after shooting an approach using a GPS where the plate says DME REQUIRED and the FSDO gets involved, it will be very entertaining to listen to you lecture the inspector that you can simply create your own approaches... But, you fly your ship your way and I will fly mine and we will both be happy... Cheers ... Denny |

It's my terminal/enroute GPS. What seems to be the problem? A plate that says "DME Required" doesn't actually mean you need a DME box. Just like the plate that says "ADF Required" doesn't mean you have to have an ADF, the GPS substitutes for both quite nicely. Do you have a FSDO that says otherwise? and the FSDO gets involved, it will be very entertaining to listen to you lecture the inspector that you can simply create your own approaches... I'm not creating my own approaches. I'm simply following the published plate. Nowhere does it say that an approach labeled "DME Required" must be flown with an actual DME. |

Have you noticed any ILS approaches labeled "ILS receiver" required?
