I was an avionics electrician for 6 years working on aircraft senstive electronics. Flight directors, INS, GPS, Flight Control Systems... You name it. ALL the manuals had us cleaning c. cards, solder joints any of that stuff with Isopropyl. I seriously doubt that they would tell you to clean a INS, or a GPS circuit card with some thing that would cause problems.
