What makes GPS navigation system "IFR approved?
I was told that would be permanently mounted, you must purchase a series of satellites and a barometric altimeter encoded What is the real problem in the certification requirements for primary IFR navigation with GPS? What prevents a portable instrument ever to be certified?
In the U.S. FAA uses two specifications IFR GPS installations, which are covered by Technical Standard Order, TSO C129 (A1) and TSO C129 (A2). A1 is en route, terminal and non-precision approach certification (A2) decreases the ability to focus. TSOs have specific installation requirements and testing. You can not meet these requirements with a portable unit, RAIM (Receiver Autonomous Surveillance Integrity) is an area where laptops have problems, among others. Even the vertical remote wiring only requires presentation remote head (CDI) and suddenly you have a child so many have to connect Quick no easy way to have the unit is portable. You can read the TSO http://rgl.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library/rgTSO.nsf/0/e560cd9c6acf8ba186256dc700717e0f/ $ FILE / C129a.pdf With the cost of obtaining a unit approved under these orders, which is not negligible, no telephones or who is not a good reason for the manufacturer to do so and accept the responsibility involved.

GPS for Mariners $14.48 GPS For Mariners is a comprehensive guide for recreational boaters to learn how to operate and effectively use today’s GPS systems in everyday navigational situations. While all GPS products come with operational manuals and there are books on how to use your GPS for land or aerial navigation, there is very little information available to recreational boaters on how to best utilize their GPS for marine navigation. From learning the history of GPS, discovering the functions of the GPS, understanding basic and advance course-plotting, learning advance navigation with GPS, interfacing a GPS with an autopilot, to using a GPS with electronic charts on a PC, GPS For Mariners includes everything the novice to the more experienced boater should know about their GPS system. GPS For Mariners is the ultimate how-to guide and ready reference leading to GPS proficiency. |
