I wonder if I could get a feel for the relative reliability of typical GA GPS receivers.
1) Has anyone ever had a GPS receiver fail in flight - not loss of signal but the unit itself decided to die?
1.5) What about lockups - the unit gets to a condition where it cannot repond to button presses?
2) Has anyone ever had a GPS receiver show up NOGO at preflight?
3) Any experiences of GPS signals suddenly becoming unusable or significantly reduced accuracy during flight? If so, how long, how unusable?
Thanks in advance,
