our current INS system is pretty darn good. how good, you'd have to ask a nav. We have a nice GPS too, but we're not allowed to use it for primary navigation (though i've NEVER had it be wrong). We don't do an celestrial nav at all.

Personally, I just ask for vectors everywhere.

GPS?- you young guys are sooooo spoiled....

Yeah, and all of us folk driving around in motorcars are spoiled compared to those enjoying their horse driven cart. It's just progress, that's all

The Prowler has a pretty sweet GPS/INS. I've only seen it get F'd up a couple times, then all you have to do is cycle power and it magically realigns itself inflight.

Good Times,

Brett

I actually did celestial heading shots for one det, the MC wanted them. I got pretty good at it, then never did them again after that. I don't know anyone else who did them, and that was '98.
