Thank you Bob,
I was looking for rules or standards. Everything you said is true in aviation also. If I was unsure of my nav equiptment I would not contuine into Vail but go back to Denver. The difference seems to be that if I think I was off course or even running late by 3 minutes I would, by reg, make a radio call to air traffic control ( even over the Atlantic ) and give a revised position.
Thanks for the link to the info.
