See AIM 1-1-20c.7. WAAS may be used as a stand-alone
system anywhere in the NAS.

GPS cannot substitute for a VOR.


Odd, then, that FAAO 7110.65 allows controllers to issue airways routing
to
GPS-equipped aircraft when the navaids defining those airways are not in
service.


Yeah, I noticed that contradiction, too. I regularly use McCord VOR as a
waypoint for airway routing even though the thing has been OPTS for years.
