There are currently 5 NOTAMS about GPS for the entire country.
They all reference the same area, but that affected area is larger than the
State of Texas, covering some 338,000 square miles at FL400. At 10,000 feet,
the footprint is "only" 120,000 square miles. It covers the entire state of
New Mexico, eastern Texas, most of Arizona, and part of Mexico, plus some
other areas.
I see you don't know how to read a NOTAM either.
What a surprise.
Sounds like a real big problem...
See above. Bigger than Texas,
Wrong.
