True. Making general relativity even less significant in aircraft. And the
act of climbing itself, has no effect. The different altitudes will, but not
the acceleration of climbing.

Mike,

It is speed. GPS travels much faster than we do.


Actually, in the case of GPS, it's not only speed, but also the
gravitation of the earth - or, IOW, general relativity rather than only
special relativity.
