I know its done to death, I have looked at the search function, however due to the phenominal rate that these things progress I thought I'd post.

I have been looking at GPS systems on the net, and firstly -

1/ Are they worth the money, for a PPL holder who is shortly undertaking an APP program.

2/ Do they cover worldwide locations?

3/ Do they become redundant once/if you secure an airline job?

4/ Can they be used in various skill tests that require nav work?

5/ How accurate are current systems?

6/ Are they any good for the road too?

7/ Which ones are the best?

I appreciate I have asked alot of questions, but if anyone can answer any or many of them you will greatly help me make a decision and I'll be very grateful!

Cheers!
