GNSS (GPS/SBAS) navigation system limitations
Navigation database limitations
The pilot must confirm at system initialization that the Navigation database is current.
If the AIRAC cycle will change during flight, the pilot must ensure the accuracy of
navigation data, including suitability of navigation facilities used to define the routes
and procedures for flight. If an amended chart affecting navigation data is published
for the procedure
,
the database must not be used to conduct the procedure
.
GPS/SBAS based IFR enroute
,
oceanic
,
and terminal navigation is prohibited unless
the pilot verifies and uses a valid
,
compatible, and current Navigation database or
verifies each waypoint for accuracy by reference to current approved data
.
