Max asked:


I’m going on a long flight pretty soon and I have a handheld Garmin GPS. I’d like to use it to see where I am, how fast we’re going, stuff like that. Is it safe to turn a GPS on when flying? What about during takeoff and landing?

Have you tried bringing a Car GPS aboard a plane while it is on during the whole trip?

What did you see from the GPS Screen? I know it is prohibited but I think someone may have actually have done it.

I always bring my GPS unit so I can find my way around an unfamiliar city. I’ve always wanted to turn it on while on the plane to see what it does, is that allowed? I think its just a receiver, and doesn’t transmit anything.
I’m always interested in knowing how fast were traveling, and where we are while flying.
