Hi Mark,
I have not seen any GPS failure on my part while flying. I have
followed and worked with Paparazzi since 2006 and not read of
in-flight failure of GPS or even Paparazzi hardware. It probably helps
that the software inside is tested with formal methods to weed out
exceptions that could cause problems.
I noticed your question "GPS can go wrong" could be widely
interpreted. GPS itself could go wrong due to solar activity etc.
