Ffs...what is the matter with this forum. I asked a simple question about where to do a GPS course since I was told by my CFI to attend one/ask on PPRuNe where to go since my school isn't running one and I have to deal with this crap.

If you want to really wind some of these folks up, tell them you intend to use an iPad in the test... Dead easy to use, all the GPS functions anyone could desire, maps and docs too!
Sone think you should turn up in a Tiger Moth with just one of those old boat compasses, a map and a watch. Then the ATO could fail your watch or something
Most examiners are sensible. They won't mind you using GPS for some things but will want to see you can use it properly, understand its limitations and get by without it if you have to. Good on ya for trying to learn about GPS properly.
