As far as the GPS issue in the cockpit it’s a known problem in almost any airliner. My understanding is Delta is going to provide a stand alone system to provide GPS inputs to the IPad for own ship positioning which will be fantastic, especially on the ground.
Can any of the iPad volunteers chime in on this? I kind of assumed the company issued bad elf external GPS solution was only for the Surface devices. Are they still looking at augmenting the ipads with an external GPS receiver? I think it’s a great idea, it just seems too reasonable when our flt ops management seems more like a “let’s just see if the operating system update clears that up...” kind of reactive problem-solving team with regard to tech issues.
