I just read a story about a Planned GPS blackout for Military Training it’s supposed to affect Both Military and Commercial Aircrafts. I wonder if I’m in this western US area will my Mavic be forced into ATTI mode? Here’s the link to the story.

“Navigation systems including those found in commercial flights may be disrupted or jammed completely across the southwest U.S. over the next couple of weeks. That sounds pretty bad but do not be too alarmed, it’s not Red Dawn. It’s just the U.S. Air Force and its massive annual Red Flag war exercises based out of Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada, as reported by The War Zone.”
