So it made me think that with the reliance on satellite systems for GPS and navigation, is map reading still taught to budding pilots?
If the satellites were taken out in a war footing, will they still be able to navigate (and I suppose that applies to other armed forces, though I believe that astral navigation, is in the Navy)?
If it’s so bad the satellites were taken out. There would be no civil aviation! So no problem there.
