Given that accident rates on ILSs seem to be significantly lower than on
non-precision approaches (for both light GA and corporate) I was just
thinking that we should really be pushing for more LNAV/VNAV and LPV
approaches as a safety issue. I wonder how many crashes have occurred on
missed approaches that might have been avoided had LPV minima been

available
and capable of getting the plane into the airport.

When are GPS approaches for places like this, and thousands of others going
to be available?

Seems like more effort should be made towards this end.
