Too true and a lot of $$ in the good old $120K Cherokee 6 on charter. I think the backup network is here for the long haul.

Agreed and well put. I likewise agree with the Dr re the way forward and I'm as frustrated as he is at the setback.

However I did not set out to deliberately mislead nor am I ignorant. That's why I've kept feeding in the facts and data to demonstrate what I stated. I agree entirely with the capability of things like the G495 and the TSO 146 navigator, but the navaid network is not based on those with the new gear until there is sufficient fitment, and we are not there yet.

Somewhere I saw the stats on GPS fitment, cannot lay my hands on it at this moment. But we have some way to go to being able to DEMAND GPS navigation and dump the navaids
