Approval Required/Authorized Use NOTE-1To determine equipment approvals and limitations, refer to the AFM, AFM supplements, or pilot guides. 2Requires verification of data for correctness if database is expired. 3Requires current database or verification that ... procedure has not been amended since the expiration of the database. 4VFR and hand-held GPS systems are not authorized for IFR navigation, instrument approaches, or as a primary instrument flight reference. During IFR operations they may be considered only…

systems onboard the aircraft. In general, these types of unintentional interference are localized and intermittent. Of greater and growing concern is the intentional and unauthorized interference of GPS signals by persons using “jammers” or “spoofers” to disrupt air navigation ... impacts of GPS jamming and/or spoofing, which include, but are not limited to: 1. Inability to use GPS for navigation. 2. Inability to use hybrid GPS inertial systems for navigation. 3. Loss of, or degraded, performance-based navigation (PBN) capability…

pilot, care must be exercised to ensure that system capabilities are not exceeded. Types of receivers used for GPS navigation under VFR are varied from a full IFR installation being used to support a VFR flight to a VFR only ... hand-held receiver. The limitations of each type of receiver installation or use must be understood by the pilot to avoid misusing navigation information. In all cases, VFR pilots should never rely solely on one system of navigation. GPS navigation…

that system capabilities are not exceeded. VFR pilots should integrate GPS navigation with electronic navigation (when possible), as well as pilotage and dead reckoning. (b) GPS receivers used for VFR navigation vary from fully integrated IFR/VFR installation used to support ... operations to hand-held devices. Pilots must understand the limitations of the receivers prior to using in flight to avoid misusing navigation information. (See TBL 1-1-6.) Most receivers are not intuitive. The pilot must learn the various keystrokes…

Doppler Radar and Inertial Navigation Systems must include the following: (a) Duties and responsibilities of flight crewmembers, dispatchers, and maintenance personnel. (b) For pilots, instruction in the following: (1) Theory and procedures, limitations, detection ... malfunctions, preflight and inflight testing, and cross-checking methods. (2) The use of computers, an explanation of all systems, compass limitations at high latitudes, a review of navigation, flight planning, and applicable meteorology. (3) The methods for updating by means…
