16blades....
not trying to start an argument, but i thought the k only had single ins/gps? if so, it is not as accurate as the j as that has twin, especially if one should fail..
as i said, not a 'j' v 'k' thing, just a question!

Having 2XGPS/INS does not make the J any more accurate as only one is used directly as the Nav solution. The whole thing is only as accurate as the GPS, i.e. as accurate as the americans will allow it to be. The big difference is not having the smell of p~ss to distract the pilots.
