Why is that silly? Imagine... You're holding over your MAP point waiting
for your next opportunity to shoot. All of a sudden, the battery in your
watch decides to go out. What do you do then?

Ask the controller to fly 5-mile legs while holding and use my GPS to
determine distance.

Come to think of it, I would do that even if my clock/watch DOES work...
it's a lot easier and a lot more accurate for the controller.
