Desktop Application With WAAS LPV Approaches?

[Will[_2_]]

Is there any desktop application that runs as a GUI under Windows that would
give me a database of the newer WAAS GPS approaches (e.g., LNAV + V, LPV,
etc)? I do NOT need currency on this. A one time snapshot that I could
update maybe once a year would be fine. I definitely do not want the
expense of a Jeppesen subscription.

If this is not available via a GUI, is it available via the Web?

I'm using this data for simulator training on a WAAS unit, so out of date
charts are perfectly okay.

Try contacting Jepp for a sample disk. They have all the approaches on
a disk you can subscribe to; they will send a sample (maybe outdated,
maybe even current) if you ask.

they push the button.

Here is an MS Excel spreadsheet provided by the FAA and updated routinely:

http://gps.faa.gov/Library/Data/LPVs_051007.xls

As far as a GUI under Windows, you could create your own using MySQL (a free,
open source database management system) by loading this Excel spreadsheet
into a MySQL table, then create reports against this table.
