GLS Approach Support

Recommended Posts

I live in Houston, and we now have fully operational GLS approaches for IAH's standard arrival runways. Does PMDG have any plans to implement GLS approach compatibility with any of their aircraft?

 

This PDF demonstrates the GBAS (Ground Based Augmentation System) channel selection, necessary for GLS approaches, through a standard Boeing FMC.

Probably not:

  1. It's already RNAV capable.
  2. You'd need scenery that has GNS, and it's not an option within FSX as far as I know, when creating facilities (just VOR, NDB and LOC/GS)
