I agree 100%. But are you willing to bet that the casual weekend pilot
has the navigational savvy to ded reckon his way around the ADIZ?

I don't. I flew in the ADIZ a few weeks ago, and there aren't very many
identifiable landmarks (until, of course, you see the Washington Monument,
by which time it's too late!) to use, especially in the evening haze. I
was damned glad to have that big ol' color map to follow.

But dead reckoning and pilotage don't exhaust the non-GPS navigational
options. Most rental planes have VOR receivers, for example.
