If you know people that got lost using colour displays then they are just as likley to get lost using a simple map
Yes, agreed. That's a good point.

But all it takes is one infringement and you will be appearing in front of the CAA
Then again, rather than everyone going out and buying GPSes, one could argue that the real solution would be for the government and airport authorities to get off their arses, put some real money into ATC to bring their equipment and staff numbers to developed country levels so that they can offer a proper service where you can go through controlled airspace as required rather than skimming around it, just like anywhere else in this part of the world.

(and you thought you were ranting )
