My handheld GPS is far more accurate and reliable than your Radio
Shack stopwatch.


Are you sure? I've got 20-year old watches that still work fine, and I've
had plenty of electronic gadgets that didn't make it past a couple of

years.
Simple (Radio Shack stopwatch) is often better.


You're conflating "accuracy" and "reliability".

And cost doesn't imply accuracy, either. My 70-quid Accurist watch keeps
better time than my Breitling Navitimer!

Unless it's off appreciably, you can't fly as accurately as either
timepiece.
