Nonesense. Aircraft that are equipped with GPS use the same charts that
non-GPS aircraft use.

The FAA has a pretty good introduction to GPS as use in aviation in the
Airman's Information Manual. The section you want is
http://www.faa.gov/ATpubs/AIM/Chap1/aim0101.html#1-1-19. If that doesn't
get you direct to the right paragraph, search for "1-1-19. Global
Positioning System (GPS)".
