Default GPS Approach Cheat Sheet?

Any of you CFIs know of a sheet that concisely shows the differences between LNAV/VNAV, LPV, LNAV/V, etc.. approaches? I've read through the chapter in Machado's instrument book a few times, but a nice diagram would be a great supplement. Thanks!

As well as one of the first few pages of the US TPP.

What I would recommend is getting familiar with the equipment used in each of those scenarios. Then, read the page in the US TPP that explains them. Ground based, aircraft based, and satellite based.

Good luck

LPV- GPS w/WAAS
LNAV/VNAV- FMS derived "glide slope"
LNAV- Simple all other non-precision
