Car Navigation In Plane Goes Crazy

Well... I turned the GPS on in a plane. And uhmmm... It kinda said I had to turn left and right. Sometimes it even thought we were on a road!

I used a TomTom for this. The woman yelling at me to turn right is talking Dutch.

If it's anything like a garmin you need to set it to off road navigation mode when on a plane/boat etc.

[FuggedabouditNL]

Hmm, don't know if that's possible with Tom-Tom.

[kentran042392]
