The FAA is planning another round of GPS interference testing off the coast of South Carolina on April 14 and 19. The GPS testing may result in unreliable or unavailable GPS signal.

The area of unavailability will decrease in altitude as follows:

  • 242NM radius at FL250,
  • 174NM radius at 10000 FT,
  • 130NM radius at 4000 FT AGL,
