Reviewing approach procedures for the G1000, and specifically the Perspective, I came upon a basic philosophical question. If one is flying an RNAV (GPS) approach (zulu, or not), and no NAVAID is specified (which is often the case), do you tune anything?
For example: http://155.178.201.160/d-tpp/1206/05034RZ21.PDF
If you are flying this approach, and you have it either on kneeboard or on the screen (I don't like that), what would you tune? You can't see it on this plate, but there is a VOR and also an ILS.
My instinct would be to have the VOR tuned and ready on NAV 1 and the ILS on NAV 2, or vice versa. My reasoning basically boils down to this: Why not?
