When you file a flight plan or request flight following, and you have to
indicate how the aircraft is equiped I usually say /u because the plane
does not have a GPS unit. Now that I have the airmap 1000 and will be
flying with that, when contacting flight service can I say /g, or is that
only if the GPS is a fixed piece of equipment in the airplane?


For the purposes of a VFR flight plan or flight following, nobody cares if
it's fixed/portable or approved/unapproved.
