The author seems to believe that GPS is the only and primary form of navigation.

Pilots in the US are trained from day one to use landmarks and dead-reckoning. From there the skills are built upon to where I believe it would be difficult to push a crew to such a gross navigational error that it causes disaster.

I’ll need to read the article more closely but it appears to be a lot of fluff and leaves out the many layers of navigation still available.
