    Subject: Converting IFR GPS to Terminal
    --> Avionics-List message posted by: "DEAN PSIROPOULOS" <dean.psiropoulos@verizon.net> I have a Tommorrow (UPS AT) GX-65 GPS/COM. This unit can be used for En-route IFR operations and has a TSO-C129a Class A2 certification. This is basically the same unit as the GX-60 which is also certified for IFR terminal and approach operations. My question is this, I'm guessing that the only difference between the GX60 and 65 is the operational software load. It may even be as simple as a change to a software configuration table that activates additional features to enable the terminal and approach capabilities. So.....is there any ex-UPS Aviation Technologies employees lurking on this list that can tell me if my hypothesis is correct? And if it there is, would they be willing to help me get this software load configured so I can do approach and terminal ops with the GX65? Since the GX series is no longer sold (now that Garmin has taken over UPS AT) I can't get my GX-65 upgraded to a GX-60 by sending it back to the factory. I'm not too keen on buying a Garmin 430 at this point (every time I think I'm done spending money on this airplane something else comes along) so I'm looking for some compromise here that won't break the bank.
