About this episode
Anyone stuck in a knotted snarl of interstate clovers knows that GPS is both important and imperfect. But if GPS fails while you’re bringing a 737 in for a landing it could be catastrophic.
Why is “GPS spoofing” on the rise—and how can airlines protect their flights against being caught up in conflict zones.
Guest: Drew FitzGerald, telecom reporter for the Wall Street Journal.
