IATA warns that GPS spoofing and jamming are rising sharply worldwide,

With navigation losses per 1,000 flights nearly doubling in three years,

And India now firmly affected.

What began near conflict zones has spilled into civilian airspace.

Pilots are urged to stay vigilant, aircraft to adapt,

But vigilance cannot replace assured navigation.

Civil aviation rests on signal integrity,

Yet spoofed and denied GNSS is becoming routine.

Passengers may not notice, but safety margins are compromised.

Navigation is critical infrastructure, not a convenience.

And safety is paramount!

Coordinates wishes a year of safety, peace and prosperity for all in 2026.
