GPS altitude again is close to actual
"Mxsmanic" wrote in message ... Gig 601XL Builder writes: Do you know of an aviation use of WAAS that isn't tied to GPS? Absolutely. GPS can be used (and is used) for en-route navigation without WAAS. It is more than precise enough for this purpose for lateral navigation. Standard GPS can be used for any lateral navigation except during take-off and landing, where it is not reliable enough for safety as the sole means of navigation. Many existing aviation GPS receivers do not include support for WAAS. You act like you are answering my question but you are not. Please reread the question.
