Navigation database

GPS/SBAS based IFR enroute, oceanic, and terminal navigation is prohibited
unless the flight crew verifies and uses a valid, compatible, and current
navigation database or verifies each waypoint for accuracy by reference to
current approved data.
"GPS", "or GPS", and "RNAV (GPS)" instrument approaches using the
Garmin navigation system are prohibited unless the flight crew verifies and uses
the current navigation database. GPS based instrument approaches must be
flown in accordance with an approved instrument approach procedure that is
loaded from the navigation database.
Discrepancies that invalidate a procedure should be reported to Garmin
International. The affected procedure is prohibited from being flown using data
from the navigation database until a new navigation database is installed in the
aircraft and verified that the discrepancy has been corrected. Navigation
database discrepancies can be reported at FlyGarmin.com by selecting "Aviation
Data Error Report." Flight crew and operators can view navigation database
alerts at FlyGarmin.com then select "NavData Alerts."
If the navigation database cycle will change during flight, the flight crew must
ensure the accuracy of navigation data, including suitability of navigation
facilities used to define the routes and procedures for flight. If an amended chart
affecting navigation data is published for the procedure, the database must not
be used to conduct the procedure.
