I started reading this thread 3 days ago. Very informative, from Dave's original post to Mark's videos.....So I have reached the end of all 77 pages in this thread. Very interesting. One question that I don't understand is this..... RVSM costs a pretty penny. Almost all aircraft now have GPS and RAIM to check for errors. With WAAS you get within 4 feet accuracy vertically, so why don't aircraft and ATC use the aircraft's GPS derived altitude? Even with RVSM equipped aircraft, the altimeters must have some error in them so what am I missing?

Remy Couple thoughts. Airlines don't have WAAS and neither do most legacy jets. More importantly, what would happen if the GPS system went down? You would have a massive problem on your hands. All it takes is watching a commercial jet pass over or under you at 1,000 feet at a closure rate of 1000kts and you will get religion about having the most accurate reliable system possible. Hence RVSM.

Dave, If ALL the aircraft are on the same GPS signal stream, then they would ALL be safe relative to one another. I get that the signal could go down in rare instances but then you have the standard altimeter as back up. I see all these videos of million dollar jets,and I chuckle when I see iPads and garmin gdl39 portable units still being used. I use them in my Navajo, and I think the FAA needs to embrace the latest technology. There should be an easier solution to spending 80K$ a plane to certify them. Just seems that if I can use WAAS signals to do an approach to a couple hundred feet then it should be incorporated into the RVSM systems where we are talking about 1,000 feet separations.
