What is the difference between GPS Steering and GPS Nav?

0

A – GPS Nav does not anticipate a course change. Thus when one leg is finished the autopilot has to intercept the next leg after over flying the waypoint. With GPS Steering the autopilot does not have to intercept the new leg because it starts intercepting procedure before reaching the waypoint so that when the intercept turn is complete the aircraft will be on the next leg. GPS Steering will also fly complex turns such as DME arcs and holding patterns. If you want the increased capability of GPS Steering you must be sure that your GPS supports GPS Steering.
