Re: contact approach

Well I know that during my instrument training that I flew a 172/A ( I believe, maybe /U) .. that would have normally been a /G 'cept that the cheap bastards at my FBO didnt pay for the updated GPS databases, so technically the GPS wasn't IFR certified. Doesn't mean I didn't use the damn thing all the time even with the stuff out of date. I guess if it came down to running out of gas or using an uncertified GPS to shoot a contact approach I would pick the latter.
