"Happy Dog" wrote in message .. . "Helen Woods" wrote in message Call me old fashioned, but you won't find me behind a glass panel or flying a "plastic" airplane. Just something about flying a bird where all the instruments don't rely on one type of system and the wings won't ever delaminate no matter what color I paint them... OK You're old fashioned. Your reference to "a "plastic" airplane" suggests that you're uneducated as well. As for "glass panel" avionics, the future will leave you behind. I assume you never fly in newer commercial airliners. moo It is interesting that GPS only IFR is not approved...

You still cannot go 'only GPS'.
