An approach certified GPS

Sorry couldn't resist...but I recall we've had past
discussions where you opined that a GPS approach
didn't give you much in the way of capability


Relative to a VFR GPS. With a VFR GPS, this is a non-issue since you
would never be 3.5 miles from the airport in the first place. Sorry,
no sale. However, if the point you were trying to make is that it
would be safer to shoot a VOR appproach using an uncertified VFR GPS
rather than the legally usable VOR receiver, the point is made .

6 degrees and 3/4 scale deflection clearly aren't
good enough.


Clearly.
