We'd all better pray that GPS is really, really reliable. Congress had approved a bill that requires the US to switch to a GPS based air traffic control system, as opposed to using radar. This will allow airplane to be packed closer together and descend steeper. In addition the FAA has now decreed that all foreign landing at SFO must use GPS.
So, boats will float serenely on through a momentary GPS outage, but those closely packed airplanes in a steep approach might not.
