Was not so high when LORAN was available as aviation, maritime and timing applications could gracefully degrade to LORAN in the event GPS was unavailable Now if GPS availability is denied we are back to maps bowdoins sextants and chronometers for navigation except for the vanishingly small number of ships and planes equipped with INS Scott Sent from my iPhone On Jul 30, 2013, at 1:28 PM, "Lester Veenstra" <les...@veenstras.com> wrote: > Yes.
