Even if this system was perfected, what would keep a terrorist from landing on a terminal at the airport? Timed right the terrorist could take out 10,000 people and a dozen 747's loaded with fuel. Or the terrorist could fly into a cruise ship, which being movable would not be in the GPS data base.
It's a lot more fool-proof to have the pilots armed with guns.

I would support legislation to limit what rounds could be carried....
And to answer your question, nothing. But when I started, I was answering a very specific question. ;>)

This system is nothing more than an electronic "Maginot Line" and is merely a challenge for a terrorist, not a deterrent. When will they ever learn.
