Default Technology is Incredible...

I still do. The fun of VFR flying, especially low level cross country flying,
is visual navigation. The damned GPS takes all the fun out of it.


While in college, a buddy and me used to go out on motorcycles, and take turn
after turn without maps, until we got about an hour away from campus, and good
and lost. Then, the fun was trying to find our way back to campus, all without
maps, of course. Navigation by instinct, I think we called it!

Fun stuff!
