Abstract/Description
-
William Dando, a student in the aviation maintenance program at FSCJ's Cecil Center, discusses the history and function of the global positioning system (a satellite-based radio navigation system owned by the United States government and operated by the United States Air Force) and whether it has positively impacted aviation safety. He specifically examines GPS use in point to point navigation, surface navigation, instrument approaches, traffic separation, terrain and obstacle avoidance, and search and rescue.
