I'm not so sure about that bullethead. MLS is accurate enough for an autoland, I don't think GPS is at that stage yet, even with ground based equipment to correct local signal errors. GPS is also subject to RAIM outages which MLS is not. Whilst it may look like a natural death it wouldn't take Columbo long to discover that MLS was actually bumped off by one particular authority. Murder most horrid!
