Garmin GPS 60 - Hiking GPS Receiver Instruction Manual

This memo cancels the requirement to overfly a known location as part of the acceptable
means of compliance described in Advisory Circular (AC) 20-138, Airworthiness
Approval of Global Positioning System (GPS) Navigation Equipment for Use as a VFR
and IFR Supplemental Navigation System, and AC 20-130A, Airworthiness Approval of
Navigation or Flight Management Systems Integrating Multiple Navigation Sensors.
This memo cancels the overflight fight test included in the following paragraphs:
AC 20-138: Paragraphs (7)(c)(1)(iv)(D),
(7)(c)(2)(iii) (included by reference),
(8)(c)(1)(iv)(J),
(8)(c)(2)(iv)(H) (included by reference);
AC 20-130A: Paragraphs (8)(c)(1)(iv)(F)(1),
(9)(c)(1)(iv)(K)(1),
(9)(c)(2)(iv)(H)(1) (included by reference).
Field experience has shown that the overflight tests are not necessary in order to ensure
that the GPS equipment is installed and functioning properly.
