Default IFR with a VFR GPS

Have you ever read either TSO-c146a or TSO-c129? One of the requirements
specifies that the database in an IFR-certified box adhere to a higher
tolerance of corruptibility. Are you sure the VFR portable's database was
built to the same specifications? If not--higher risk.


How so?



I can go on and list each item-by-item but you seem to be literate so you
can read the TSOs at your leisure. Bottom line is as I stated in my
previous
post that you don't personally believe the requirements outlined in these
documents reduce risk in any way, shape, or form.

If that's the case, I'm glad you don't help the FAA develop these
standards.


If you believe there is a higher risk I think you should be able to identify
that risk.
