G1000 GNSS (GPS/SBAS) NAVIGATION EQUIPMENT APPROVALS

The Garmin GNSS navigation system installed in this airplane is a GPS system with a Satellite Based
Augmentation System (SBAS) comprised of two TSO-C145a Class 3 approved Garmin GIA 63Ws, TSO-C146a
Class 3 approved Garmin GDU 1XXX Display Units, Garmin GA36 and GA37 antennas, and GPS software version
3.2 or later approved version. The Garmin GNSS navigation system in this airplane is installed in accordance with
AC 20-138A
The Garmin GNSS navigation system as installed in this airplane complies with the requirements of AC 20-138A
and AMC 20-28, is approved for navigation using GPS and SBAS (within the coverage of a Satellite Based
Augmentation System complying with ICAO Annex 10) for IFR en route, terminal area, and non-precision
approach operations (including those approaches titled "GPS", "or GPS", and "RNAV (GPS)" approaches). The
Garmin GNSS navigation system installed in this airplane is approved for approach procedures with vertical
guidance including "LPV" (within the coverage of a Satellite Based Augmentation System complying with ICAO
Annex 10) and "LNAV/VNAV", within the U.S. National Airspace System.
The airplane is approved for Enroute and Terminal operations including RNAV5 / BRNAV and RNAV1 / PRNAV in
accordance with JAA TGL--10, provided the FMS is receiving usable navigation information from one or more GPS
receivers.

G1000 GNSS (GPS/SBAS) NAVIGATION SYSTEM LIMITATIONS

The pilot must confirm at system initialization that the Navigation database is current.
Navigation database is expected to be current for the duration of the flight.
If the AIRAC cycle will change during flight, the pilot 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.
GPS/SBAS based IFR enroute, oceanic, and terminal navigation is prohibited unless the pilot verifies and
uses a valid, compatible, and current Navigation database or verifies each waypoint for accuracy by
reference to current approved data.
Discrepancies that invalidate a procedure must 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 airplane and verified that the discrepancy has been corrected.
