Flying to Egypt?


 If your flying to Egypt you might consider some light reading... to be more precise the EASA (European aviation safety agency) extended security warning for Egypt and the Sanai area.
 Nothing much to worry about, unless your concerned about GPS jamming around Cairo International Airport. RNAV (GNSS) approaches should not be planned there. (so hope for daylight and good weather).
 Some countries also advise not flying lower than 25000 feet to avoid the risk of manpad (man portable anti aircraft rockets) attacks.
So all well and good then....   Me I'm sticking to Brighton, Ok theres no pyramid but I suspect arriving on the number 23 bus is safer than flying to Cairo with people playing silly buggers with the GPS system.
