Default Fed: Planes flying in "commercial" airspace must get GPS

you can go to where it's safe.


I'd like to see how many pilots could successfully do this.


YOU OBVIOUSLY apparently have no clue about flight training or you
would not say a dumb statement like the above. The above is taught in
flight training. Whether the pilot elects to stay current or not is
pilot discretion.

Apparently YOU don't even simulate it. You probably would have to
restart your kiddy game in MSFS if you had to do the above where at
least in the real world, I would have a chance of survival.
