WAAS upgrade for your G1000?
"Dan Luke" wrote in message
... ... Could be really bad. Owners 0f 2004-2006 Cessnas could find the IFR utility of their airplanes diminishing yearly as the FAA commissions more LNAV-VNAV WAAS approaches. Can you say "class action suit?" What about when ADS-B arrives? Will G1000 owners be SOL then, too? ... I can't see the FAA decommissioning VOR / ILS / GPS / RNAV approaches as they bring up new WAAS approaches. I can see that the older G1000s won't be able to take advantage of the new approaches. I also don't see this as a big impact for CAP since very, very little of our flying is done in IMC (except for transport or maybe electronic searches). I think this will become a marketing / legal issue for Cessna however, especially if promises were made. -- Jim Carter Rogers, Arkansas |
