See Joe Mehaffey's list of airlines at
[1]http://gpsinformation.net/airgps/airgps.htm
The list of airlines that allow GPS have the caveat that the Captain has the
final decision.
It is interesting that American is listed as banning them as of
October 2009 (apparently they have switched back and forth on this
policy)...
Earlier this week the Mehaffy list had American as approving GPS, but I
checked the AA website earlier this week and it listed them as being
banned. I contacted Mehaffey and maybe he updated the list after
contacting AA. I'm flying AA this coming Friday, so I'll see how it
goes. I flew up on Delta and used my Garmin Legend HCx in a window seat
and it worked beautifully. My next leg was on a United Shuttle, and
despite their website saying GPS was approved, the flight attendant
specifically announced that they were not approved. I didn't push it
since it was a 0.5 hr commuter flight.
