Note
The GPS antenna must be able to “see”
each satellite it is tracking. If a satellite is
“shaded” by the wing or fuselage during a
turn, it may temporarily lose track of that
satellite. If this happens, or if the geometry
of the satellites available is poor, Nav
information
will temporarily not be
available.
