If you're required to keep the database up to date, you don't have much
choice.

Yes, you do, fjukktard

Why is anyone agruing ANYTHING with Anthony? You might as well argue with
your dog or cat.

I love arguing with my dog! She usually wins, but is very eloquent.

Are you required to keep the database up to date?

It's worse than ever. The value of the NG is fading away.

After a tiny hiatus where no one wasted time bashing him, and thus
threads were short and sweet, Bertie came along. Now a lot of
otherwise intelligent people are posting crap again.

Look at this thread. Remove all of Maxwell, Bertie, and Mx's replies,
and you'd be back to just a few posts... all with actual aviation
content.

There was no answer, only speculation similar to my own.


BS, you're just trolling now. I know you to well.

Don't you dare insult my Weimarainers like that. Take it back this instant.

Their comprehension skills are demonstratedly twice those of MX. But then
again, maybe that's just because they actually listen.

Depends. In theory, you don't need the database to be up to date. But if you
have an accident, the FAA might determine that your failure to do so meant
that you did not avail yourself of all available information in order to avoid
the accident, and that could be a problem.

Exactly what information is only available in a GPS database update?

How were you able to determine what the margins are?

I work for a company that provides real geodesic computer software
(albeit not to end user pilots) and prepares mission planning
information. Much as with Jepp, if we screw up, people die
(well, the WRONG people die at least).

It's never as easy, even in the production environment as pushing
the button and watching the end user product come out the other side.

Even the commercial software we produce costs are SUBSTANTIAL compared
to the price of distribution.

Sorry bozo. If you actually took an instrument flight course and
understood the underlying regulations you would understand that it
is far more involved in that. The legal documents that accompany
a REAL installation spell out the specific rules. Flaunting them
can run you in trouble REGARDLESS if the violation of the rules
caused an accident.

Furhter, in practice, you are using the database as the SOLE MEANS
of navigation in a phase of flight that is VERY CLOSE to the ground
and obstacles. It's just plain not safe to be putzing around with
unknown data.
