Not practical. You need ground wave reception of LORAN for accurate navigation. At long distances you would be reliant on sky wave.
I'm going to an NPL Timing meeting in early December being held at Trinity House in London. I'll get the low down on what is happening over here on LORAN in light of the US announcement for 2010. If anyone else in UK fancies the visit - got to http://www.npl.co.uk/events/timing-and-non-gnss-positions for info.
