You also have to carry a map, but many people with GPS don't bother.

I have never met somebody that stupid. Perhaps they exist somewhere...

Of course if a pilot gets airborne without charts and without GPS that is less bad, yes??

You are either a true beginner, or you are a great windup Nobody on EARTH is going to use an ADF (which suffers from errors up to 30 degrees at the best of times) backed up by a GPS (which can position you within a few yards anywhere on earth). The other way round, yes.

A reflection that most IMC / IR training is illegal or in VMC so a waste of time.

I am trying to work that one out
