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.
