Hi, I emailed Delta Airlines if it's okay to use a handheld GPS when being a passenger in one of their airplanes. They responded back with it's okay at cruise heights, although not when taking off or landing (apparently some airlines even say no GPS whatsoever).
Since I'm flying with Delta in a couple of weeks to Hawaii, I thought it could be fun to make a GPS tracklog to share on Facebook, and geotagg pictures I take out the window (probably would be more fun taking the pictures when I'm flying over the Continental U.S., rather than the open boring ocean part of it).
Anyway, would there be any special settings I'd need to set my Garmin Oregon 450 to, for the tracklog and geotagging to work properly? Are there only a certain number of points in a track before the GPS archives it and starts a new one? Because of that, would I need to tell it to only record the track every mile, rather than how I have it now at 1/100th of a mile? Would I need to go to the time settings and tell it to not detect what time zone it's in, so that it'll allow me to "geotagg from track" later on? If I don't do that, would BaseCamp get confused because it would see multiples of the same time within the same track?
