Hi folks,

I've added a KLN89 GPS unit hardcoded in C++ (OK'd by Curt).  Briefly, since 
it's late, it's only included on the c172p 2D panel (--aircraft=c172p-2dpanel). 
 It looks best at --geometry=1024x768 since the fonts are at 1:1 pixellation at 
that resolution.  

As with the KAP140, it's independent of the menu dialog, and needs reference to 
the real life manual for proper use, which can be found on the web via Google.  
For non-manual readers (!), very briefly the inner and outer knobs and the crsr 
button are the crucial ones to get started (hit Ctrl-C for hot-spots).  Inner 
knob changes subpage or item under cursor, outer knob changes page or cursor 
position, crsr toggles cursor on/off.  

A few flight plans are hardwired in - others can be added through the unit, but 
are not saved between FG sessions.  Non-precision approaches for C83 and KHWD 
(both in the FG base package) are hardwired in and can be loaded from the APT8 
page (IIRC), and the unit will simulate non-precision approach operation, 
including the cdi scale changes at the approach-arm and approach-active points 
(make sure you switch nav1 to gps on the annunciator/switch unit).

Thanks to Roy Ovesen for supplying me with the svg drawings of his KAP140 as a 
starting point for the background.

Cheers - Dave
