Steve when you answered my questions last year, it has always been my understanding that the IFD 540 is a GPS navigator which would be compliant with AC 20.138 and AC 20.146.  It is not a multisensor FMS and therefore would not support certification to DO-283 or DO-236.  Isn't that right? ( you can never meet the availability requirement with just one box)

To that end, I am also assuming that in the STC, there will be a statement that RNAV RNP approaches would be permitted down to LPV minimums.  Also that SAAR approaches would not be authorized or would just be removed from the database.

Does anyone really  think bug smashers need SAAR approaches?
