Ed, 
While I do not know  if Dick Meyer's plane was equipped with WAAS enabled nav 
system approved for  LPV, we should all be aware that JYO does have a RNAV 
approach with minimum of  300-1 (LPV).  Having used that approach a few times 
since it was  approved, I can say that it provides much needed access in poor 
weather.   While an ILS would be nice, FAA has been responsive to the need for 
a 
 precision approach.  According to the weather you provide the airport  would 
have been at minimums at the time of the crash. 
We will all miss the  Meyers and hope that coverage, as there was in the Post 
today, doesn't result  in more pressure on the airport.
