Can I fly NDB approach with GPS?
GPS substitution for NDB Again, an NDB approach without a GPS overlay cannot be flown using GPS. It must be flown using an ADF. Pilots flying the VVS approach can use GPS to satisfy the ADF requirement as the ADF is not used for final approach course guidance.

Are there still NDB approaches?
NDBs are rare, but still part of a well-rounded pilot’s training. Most found the NDB approaches difficult to fly, and imprecise. Now, to nearly everyone’s gratitude, most NDB approaches have been decommissioned—and replaced by much more accurate, simpler RNAV GPS-based procedures.
Can you fly an NDB approach with G1000?
It’s just for fun that we like to figure out how to use the NDB on the Garmin. The G1000 can tune in on NDB’s and can show an ADF needle, we just have to look for it since it’s not on the default display. Scroll down for the video. We look out for the ADF/DME button on the bottom menu.
Is DME required in Europe?
The DME is required for the LOC only procedure and for the full ILS only because the missed approach hold is only defined by DME. From what I know it’s the ARP (aerodrome reference point), which is kind of arbitrarily located but listed on most Jeppesen plates.
What illusion if any can rain on the windscreen create?
Rain on the windscreen can create an illusion of being at a higher altitude due to the horizon appearing lower than it is. This can result in the pilot flying a lower approach. Atmospheric haze can create an illusion of being at a greater distance and height from the runway.

Do pilots still use ADF?
The ADF/NDB navigation system is one of the oldest air navigation systems still in use today. The result is a cockpit instrument (the ADF) that displays the aircraft position relative to an NDB station, allowing a pilot to “home” to a station or track a course from a station.

Does the G1000 have an RMI?
The HSI of the G1000 provides both a VOR (the course deviation indicator) and an RMI (outside the circle of the course deviation indicator). You have the same equipment in both aircraft, although the DME and ADF in most G1000 aircraft are using GPS to simulate these values.
