First off let me say that GPS is the best tool for nav by a long way. Just a word of caution though, they can give spurious info occasionally! I have just driven from Glasgow to Kent and somewhere around Kendal i checked google maps to see if any significant traffic was ahead and my phone running google maps couldnt give my location. A few more presses of the button and it placed me in the middle of the Irish sea with the blue cursor flashing
. That was no big deal in a car with an approximate idea of where i was. Not so sure a low hours pilot relying on it would so easily have ignored the data though?
Slight thread creep, does anyone know if there were any jamming trials today? As its the only time that has happened to me on the phone ( a Sony Experia) it also locks on much quicker than my sky force, like within a minute even if its very cold on data!
