Now you have your licence its time to ditch the whizz wheel and stopwatch and invest in a decent aviation GPS and a subscription to Skydemon.

One those two are mastered, the UK and Europe is your oyster.
Mariner9,

I have wondered how many pilots use GPS versus Visual Navigation etc - or whether GPS is mainly used as a "backup" to Primary Navigation?

I have read differing arguments both for and against about GPS and wondered what the "real world" practical application scenario is..

Any particular recommendations regarding GPS Unit? or IPAD with Skydemon?

I have taken out a trial to sky demon on my Apple but need to get accustomed to this.

Interested in your thoughts?

Many Thanks.
