According to the AIM, you need to have an IFR approved GPS for that
purpose.


Does this charting change now make it
illegal to fly any of the ILS's into Providence without a DME or IFR
GPS on board? Does this mean I need to either install a DME or pony
up for an IFR GPS?

It sure looks that way. And it looks as if one of the ILS's requires DME
and ADF.

Kind of sucks to have to put out $1000's to fly
into an airport I've called home for 10 years.

Progress ng.
