RE: HP 29 GPS: the view from
Of course, you have access to GPS satellites on the ground, line of sight, so almost an entire hemisphere depending on satellite availability. In the aircraft you are down to what is in the field of view from that window and that field of view would be very restrictive.

I have seen iPads with GPS mounted in opposite sides of the flight deck one receiving the other not.

I positioned and started the HP 29 the same way on both flights so I don't think that was an issue. I did manage to get a fix on the other side of the dateline, but lighting was low on the flight deck and the image is a bit blurry. I will upload the longitude photo with an E for east but south will have until July.
