The absolutely dirt cheapest way of getting LPV?

Thanks Anthony.

First you have to register, which I presume you have done, then subscribe to the service….but you need to wait a day before the PBN tool becomes visible….why? Who knows…

Anthony, I wanted to look at the PBN Approach Map Tool but I can’t find it. I have a login for the Eurocontrol Extranet but presume I have to “subscribe” to something, but what?? Any help appreciated.

EGKA has no ILS.

Yes, they are talking about LPV. It would actually be interesting to me if they did that. But I won’t be doing what is in this thread, because I need an “MFD” of some sort.

Presumably it would be a GNS430W, and retaining all the previous analog connections from the old GPS.

Yes I noticed on that OneSky PBN map that EGKA has planned LPV approaches for 2015…..will be sooner than later that you will lose the ILS

If the old GPS was a GNS430, would the GNS430W give you LPV directly i.e. would all the glideslope connections be already “right” for the autopilot?

You most likely will have to add three wires to interface to the KFC225. GPS Select replaces GPS Annunciate and the Arinc 429.

That is why most modern avionics come with an STC for the most populair aircraft. Else it would be very hard to sell that equipement. On the GTN you still need a minor change approval. The minor change approval is to approve the configuration you choose from the STC as the STC is very wide.

Thanks. That does indeed make the GTN a more sensible proposition if EASA reg.

Best thing obviuosly (as usual) is to avoid EASA reg.

You will need an STC for that as it is considerd a major change by EASA. Major changes can only be performed by certified design organisations (DOA). If there is no “wide” STC available, you will need an STC for your specific aircraft, which is quite expensive.

Recently, I read that the STC required for LPV approaches in an EASA reg with a GNS430 was 5000 Euros. Can anyone confirm?
