WAAS upgrade info for Garmin 430
Kevin Clarke wrote:
Is there any value to WAAS yet, beyond the "Gee Whiz" factor? Can I do precision approaches with it yet? Gives you a couple of features: 1. There are LPV approaches which have vertical guidance and DH's a bit higher than ILS's (I think the lowest I've seen is 300'). 2. Removes the condition to pick an alternate that has a non-GPS approach you are equipped to fly. 3. The TSO mandates some nice features such as the autosequencing of the course reversal and missed approach that the 430/530 was previously missing. |
