I never said any different!

But most pilots will choose to carry a paper chart. It's easier to read, easier to rotate, easier to look at a different place, easier to find stuff on, than a computer screen which is being bathed in sunlight.

I don't know of many pilots who fly VFR, but choose not to carry, and use, a paper chart in addition to their GPS. Even you choose to print off paper chart sections to carry with you, if I remember correctly
