GPS AND MAP
Hello ,
Recently I bought a PILATUS PC12 ,with the GPS KLN90B. Is it possible to exchange the GPS against a GARMIN 500 and a MAP , as in standard Aircrafts of FS9. Thanks in advance Paul |

Exchanges are the realm of the seller. But any avionics can
be retro-fitted if you have the budget. "Paul" wrote in message ... | Hello , | | Recently I bought a PILATUS PC12 ,with the GPS KLN90B. | Is it possible to exchange the GPS against a GARMIN 500 and a MAP , | as in standard Aircrafts of FS9. | | Thanks in advance | | Paul | | |

Dont discount the KLN90B. It will get you into all the approaches that
the 530 will. |

Will the 530 allow you to fly a non-GPS overlay VOR/Loc approach using the GPS? The 430 doesn't. It says something to the effect that it can be used as a situational awareness tool only. Same as the KLN94B, IIRC. Of course, if the approach has a GPS overlay, then you can fly the GPS overlay (again, using the GPS) but in that case, you're not flying the underlying VOR/Loc approach. -- Mark Hansen, PP-ASEL, Instrument Airplane Cal Aggie Flying Farmers Sacramento, CA |

Flip the 430 or 530's CDI switch to VLOC, tune in the NAV portion, and enjoy the approach. - FChE |

When you switch to VLOC, you're using the VOR/Localizer, not the GPS. - FChE -- Mark Hansen, PP-ASEL, Instrument Airplane Cal Aggie Flying Farmers Sacramento, CA |

Mark,
That's what I mean by "Using the GPS". What do you expect? It's a "non-GPS"-Approach. Also, check the FARs for which navaids you can legally substitute by GPS in enroute and approach situations. -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH) |

Mark, That's what I mean by "Using the GPS". What do you expect? It's a "non-GPS"-Approach. Also, check the FARs for which navaids you can legally substitute by GPS in enroute and approach situations. That's exactly what I expect. I was trying to point this out. If you look back in the thread, Doug said: "Dont discount the LNK90B. It will get you into all the approaches the 530 will." to which Paul said: "Really? Including VOR/localizer approaches?" So I was trying to explain that when either GPS is in GPS mode, you can fly a GPS overlay approach, but the box can only be used for situational awareness for the VOR/localizer approaches (not to fly the actual approach). -- Mark Hansen, PP-ASEL, Instrument Airplane Cal Aggie Flying Farmers Sacramento, CA |
