Common use of GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEMS Clause in Contracts

GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEMS. 4.1. Aircraft must be equipped with at least two high quality GPS receivers of a type acceptable to NAFC. 4.2. Of the two GPS receivers required under this subheading, one must be fully installed in the Aircraft, with an external aerial suitably positioned to avoid airframe obstructions. 4.3. Both GPS receivers required under this subheading must be able to be operated by Aircraft electrical power. 4.4. Of the two GPS receivers required under this subheading, at least one must be capable of operating independently of Aircraft electrical power for at least eight hours. The Contractor must ensure that at all times fresh or fully charged batteries are available. 4.5. Both GPS receivers required under this subheading must be: a. capable of fixing the Aircraft position relative to the ground within plus or minus 0.1 Nautical Mile, in three dimensions; and b. capable of providing continuous real time readout in Latitude and Longitude on a visual display; and c. capable of storing at least one hundred user defined waypoints. 4.6. Of the two GPS receivers required under this subheading, at least one must be: a. capable of providing continuous real time readout in Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) format using GDA94 datum; and b. equipped with a large visual display, readable from the co-pilot position (if applicable) in ambient bright sunlight; and c. able to be ergonomically operated from the co-pilot position (if applicable).
