FYI - for anyone flying in the southwest, GPS interference testing will be taking place intermittently over the next few weeks, and may lead to impaired GPS service.

For what it's worth, they've been doing this regularly for years and I've never seen a hiccup in my full-scale aircraft (though its certified GPS units are probably more solid than the Phantom's).

Nor have I, but I have seen occasional reports of degraded precision nearer the location.
