Where does the DME info come from when using an IFR cert GPS?


From the GPS. Approach certified GPS can be used in lieu of DME for
determining position on an instrument approach that requires DME.

An enroute/terminal GPS can also be used on an approach for necessary
DME information. I use my GX55 for such purposes. Since no DME shacks
are in the database I use other navaids or intersections as my DME fix,
such as VOR's or the outer markers.
