That's EXACTLY the point!

Someone's trying to distract again...
What's the LAA award for? "navigation..."? "Solo" is not a factor in this award, don't be distracted!
On the face of it, would the LAA members like to feel that their organization has made an award for "navigation", when the flight awarded was flown with multiple advanced navigation aids, second pilot assistance, ground planning assistance, and a chase plane? If those factors in a flight still allow that flight to be awarded a navigation award, I think the LAA should print up a lot of those awards, as there will be many deserving pilots who have accomplished long flights with less assistance, who should be similarly awarded!
