And boat, and plane, and backpack...... everything!
Last year, Obama shut-off LORAN, a very good and very inexpensive system for supplying fixes to aircraft, boats, and civilians. Stated purpose: to save $135M over the next four years.” What a liar. To “save” .0000206% of the budget. Right. I and others warned that relying solely upon GPS was a big mistake. Looks like we were right. The FAA is, by the way, wagging its tail for Master Obama and slowly decommissioning existing aircraft navigation based upon NDB/VOR/ILS. This will, of course, make LightSquared’s system the only one available for such navigation — a privately owned company. This scandal makes Gun Walker look small.
