Thanks for the responses. No, I'm just trying to comply with the AIM's guidance, but I don't think many of the people I fly with are aware of the potential implications of arming the g/s beyond 10 NM or while approaching intermediate waypoints prior to the FAF, whether on an ILS, or even visual approach. Obstacle clearance, Class B airspace, corridor separation, SIPIA compliance, not to mention signal reliability...
