Sorry, FF, but you have a fundamental lack of understanding of how the law works in this area. For GPS not to be legal as a primary means of navigation in the UK open FIR, such use would have to be prohibited by the ANO (or other UK Statutory Instrument or Eurolaw). It does NOT have to be expressly permitted for such use to be lawful.
So, as before FF, I invite you to provide us with the legal reference to support this contoversial and unhelpful view about the illegality of GPS, which I am certain is just plain wrong.
