    GPS Vs Non GPS for New Pilots

    Hey Jubair. Thanks for this man. Just what I needed as have Ben flying in GPS mode so far and a bit nervous to cut the umbilical chord. That said, having read your posts and watched the video, cannot wait to get up in the morning for my dawn mission in manual mode. Thanks again.
