KCAC to host AOPA Seminar entitled “GPS from the Ground Up”

February 17, 2009 07:26 by Aircraft Sales

This GPS seminar discusses GPS operations as a whole, not just individual unit-specific functions. It's no longer about a GPS unit, it's about an entire operation that includes the pilot, ATC, Flight Service, etc. The pilot should not only use GPS as a supplemental means of navigation and situational awareness, but as a method to help manage the entire flight. The seminar will start with some brief compare/contrast of specific units and how technology has evolved, and then move into meaningful tips and advice for every phase of flight: Flight planning, preflight, departure, enroute and much more. We'll also discuss real-pilot "gotchas" that GPS users got themselves into due to lack of proper training, etc. You will not want to miss this seminar.  For additional information, please contact Carrie Gicante at (866) FLY-KCAC or visit www.aopa.org.
