## Resource

A medical plane crashed in New Mexico after GPS signals were jammed by the military—despite warnings—while en route to pick up a patient. Four crew members died, and the wreckage sparked a wildfire. The NTSB’s preliminary report points to GPS interference as a key factor, though the official cause remains pending. Air traffic control had even asked the military to stop jamming, but pilots claimed they could land visually—leading to the green light for jamming to resume. The plane hit the mountains at nearly 10,000 feet, underscoring the life-or-death stakes of reliable navigation. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
