At first I thought wow never got more than 10 satellites at the same time, but then I noticed the speed over ground and altitude and everything was clear!

You were running the GPS on a commercial airliner? Any issues with the crew, or didn't they really notice the little antenna?

The stewardess noticed it and asked me what it was. I told her it was a gps antenna that only receives signals, it doesn't send them. I told here to speak to the Flight Engineer if she wasn't sure, but she wasn't interested. Malaysian Airlines.
