NOTE : Not all approaches in the database
are approved for GPS use. As you select an
approach, a GPS designation to the right of the
procedure name indicates the procedure can be
flown using the GPS receiver. Some procedures
do not have this designation, meaning the GPS
receiver may be used for supplemental naviga-
tion guidance only. VOR approaches, for example,
must be flown by tuning the NAV receiver to the
proper frequency and coupling the NAV receiver
to the HSI located on the PFD.
