The key "mission capability" advantage comes from a lower MDH figure. When we get ~ 400ft DH I will be happy.
Yes, but what is the "safe" theoretical MDH for GPS without WAAS? Altitude is unreliable without WAAS so the procedure must rely on DME or GPS step downs. Without WAAS can the final stepdown be any lower because GPS is providing great accuracy in its 2D position?
