Finnair adapts pilot training for daily GPS interference in Baltic
Finnair has adapted its pilot training to account for daily GPS interference in the Baltic region, according to Reuters, reflecting the persistent scale of electronic warfare activity attributed to Russian sources in the area. The airline has integrated GPS-denied navigation procedures and alternative positioning methods into routine training, indicating that the interference has become a normalized operating hazard rather than an occasional anomaly. The development has direct relevance for military aviation operating in the same airspace and for NATO assessments of the electronic warfare environment on the Alliance's northeastern flank.
