Suppose you are navigating solely by GPS. What are you going to do in
the event the military chooses to disable the GPS system while you're
airborne


Can't be done. There is no on/off switch.

Plus the fact that the loss of GPS could put the lives of hundreds of
thousands of commercial passengers in the air, in peril. Not a good thing
to do, politically speaking. It would also cause problems with surveyors,
and many other groups, also. The economic fallout would be huge.
