I understand the need for tests... but couldn't they do it further off the cost to affect land areas less?  Then again... this might be a good time to learn your star positions Tongue

I know the article suggests otherwise, but looking at the map I'm thinking it won't be effecting ground based GPS much what with the 4000FT AGL (Above Ground Level) and the 10000FT MSL (Mean Sea Level...usually shown as AMSL Above Mean Sea Level...not sure why it's missing the A here) and the FL250 (really high) and the FL400 (really REALLY high).
