Cool

Doesn't it depend on the actual alt and speed? I say this as I had one recently that was something like 120ft which according to the vol 3 ops manual was acceptable for normal operations, and it did vary with mach speed and alt, the error was reported at fl340 and .85m. Of course it was different if operated under RNP 5 navigation rules.
