I feel another heated GPS debate coming on.....

Show me a pilot who can hand fly and operate the CRaP 5 and I will show you a man with more arms than an octopus.

Thanks god for the ASA flight computer!!
I like these arguments. If you are nicely trimmed out you should be able to start whizz wheeling. Personaly I use the ASA CX-2 when in the air. On the ground I use the whizz wheel, mostly because I am working on my ATPL's and I don't want to forget how to use it.

I prefer good ole nav for vfr, heading distance time and visual references. I do use a GPS in the PA32 sometimes, usualy in crap weather. If not VOR's DME's and NDB's.
