Don't hold your breath, Dan... The FAA is still installing new ILS
systems... Ours at HYX is now a month old.. (oops, it's now HQW but
old habits, and old charts, die hard) It has occurred even to the
bureaucratic closed mind, that a single terrorist with a GPS jammer
could wreak havoc on a stormy night, a solar storm could wipe out GPS,
etc... Loran will be around for a long time also, same reasons (just
to head off that discussion) One basket for all your eggs is always a
risk...

Right about the same time our sun decides it wants to throw an
all-decade-long solar flare party.

Yes, with flair. After all, it's a party!
