A system for navigation and collision avoidance where aircraft and vessels determine their position by GPS and report that position to a system of satellites along with local parameters such as heading and attitude. This system of satellites allows communication and exchange of information between all the satellites. Each participating craft receives from at least one of these satellites the positions, headings, speed and other parameters of all craft in the system or of all craft in the vicinity. A display can display a situation or a view located on any craft in the system (but normally on the craft where it is located) to inform o hazards and pending collisions. Icons and craft information appear for all craft being displayed.

1. A ground control navigation and collision avoidance system comprising: a plurality of aircraft operating on an airport surface, each of said aircraft determining position by GPS and automatically communicating position, heading, and speed data to at least one satellite, said position, heading, and speed data for each of said aircraft being shared with all of said aircraft, each of said aircraft having a situation display depicting said airport with all of said aircraft displayed, said display warning of collision hazards on said airport. 2. The ground control navigation and collision avoidance system of claim 1 further comprising traffic sign icons on said display to direct said aircraft on said airport. 3. The ground control navigation and collision avoidance system of claim 1 further comprising foreign language capability on said display, said display choosing a language based on country of origin of a particular aircraft, said display presenting information and directions in said language. 4. A ground control navigation and collision avoidance system comprising: at least one aircraft operating as a ground aircraft at an airport, said aircraft determining its position by a position determination means and automatically communicating position, heading, and speed data to at least one satellite; said position, heading, and speed data for said aircraft being shared with other aircraft also operating as ground or air aircraft on or near said airport, each of said aircraft having a situation display depicting said airport with all of said aircraft displayed, said display warning of collision hazards on said airport. 5. The ground control navigation and collision avoidance system of claim 4 further comprising traffic sign icons on said display to direct said aircraft on said airport. 6. The ground control navigation and collision avoidance system of claim 4 further comprising foreign language capability on said display, said display choosing a language based on country of origin of a particular aircraft, said display presenting information and directions in said language. 7. The ground control navigation and collision avoidance system of claim 6 further comprising voice commands to and from said display in said chosen language. 8. The ground control navigation and collision avoidance system of claim 4 wherein said position determination means is GPS. 9. The ground control navigation and collision avoidance system of claim 4 wherein said at least one of position, speed and heading is communicated from said satellite to at least on other craft. 10. The ground control navigation and collision avoidance system of claim 4 further comprising communicating at least one of location, speed and heading of said aircraft to a location on said airport. 11. The ground control navigation and collision avoidance system of claim 10 wherein said at least one of position, speed and heading is communicated from said location on said airport to at least on other craft. 12. A airport ground collision avoidance system comprising: at least one aircraft operating on an airport; at least one radio link between said aircraft and a satellite; said aircraft measuring at least one of position, speed and heading using a navigation means; said aircraft reporting said at least one of position, speed and heading by said radio link to said satellite; said satellite relaying said at least one of position, speed and heading to other craft on or near said airport. 13. The collision avoidance system of claim 12 wherein said radio link is UHF. 14. The collision avoidance system of claim 12 wherein said navigation means is GPS. 15. The collision avoidance system of claim 12 wherein said navigation means is totally onboard said aircraft. 16. The collision avoidance means of claim 12 wherein heading is determined by an onboard gyro system, position and speed are determined by GPS.
