have the CAA allowed that as primary NAV yet ?
Is this a wind-up?

It has never been not allowed for any form of navigation.

Any kind of ban or restriction on GPS is and has always been a pilot forum myth.

It is only in specific sections of the UK PPL training syllabus where GPS cannot be used. In the rest of the PPL training syllabus it can be used.

And after you get your PPL you can navigate any way you like.
That's the other problem with learning in the US, you become a magenta-line kid too early for your own good
Here we go again....another wind-up.

Tell ya what.... I did an IR in Arizona in 2006, and never touched GPS.
