This is the route to go. If you have a GPS/COMM you don't need a second
VOR. Then you can ditch the ADF and Loran and also have a DME
substitute. And your plane will be lighter.

But is that DME substitute legal for approaches/departures marked "DME
Required"? What about if the GPS system is having a bad hair day?
