Is it ok to fly a VOR DME approach using GPS?

I am preparing for my I-7 and have already did a trial flight using my Nav radio for VOR DME.

Re: Don’t know how to change models

Here's an example of an error I'm getting. Failed to create aircraft NEPHI2 using default model "UTLive_GL2_Tan_and_Orange". You must set a valid default model or you will keep getting this error! Disconnecting from network.
