I have 2 questions
1) How does the FMC calculate the position using GPS, IRS and Radio? It certainly is not calculated based on GPS or IRS alone. So what is the 'weight' of each of them in the calculation?
2) What is the FMC logic which selects the position from one of the GPS sensor units as the primary update to the FMC position? How is it decided which GPS to be used as primary update?
These queries are in reference to B737-800.
