The failure to monitor the integrity of the WAAS signal is why the test

remained set until recently. The integrity issues were WAAS integrity

Unaugmented GPS has insufficient integrity monitoring.



See the CNX-80.

Buy a vowel, get a clue, call your mommy.

the accuracy, integrity, and availability of GPS.


Nope, but a salseman needs to sell. If you look at the difference in
minimums for the VNAV, you will note that WAAS gives the operator little to
nothing in increased capabilities.

WAAS was a scam run on aviation to remove tens of $billions from the
aviation trust fund; from that perspective WAAS is a tremendous success.
WAAS is the reason sci.geo.satellite-nav is a discredited and dishonest
newsgroup. Ron Lee being a possible exception.
