There are only the three Conquests left and somedays they are GPSRNAV approved and others they are not. Is this more to do with pilot endorsements? It would be interesting to know the reason for this.

10 departures between 5.30am and 6.00am this morning, over 50 in total, the airspace is overloaded with no relief in sight. All ATC's do their best but the situation is getting dangerous, not sure what the solution is though.
