Hi,

There is a "gps" in CVS: $FGROOT/Aircraft/Instruments-3d/zkv500, I mean 
an instrument which looks like a gps for a non-pilot, not-advised user 
:). This instrument manages routes, looks for airports, saves waypoints 
(bookmarks), creates routes, give several infos about wind, etc.

It uses the /position/*, /environment/* properties and properties from 
the hard-coded kln89.

It is a 5 lines LCD display with retrolight for nigh use, the manual is 
included in CVS for installation and use.

Indeed it is surely not a "real" gps as trained pilots are used to see 
and use in aircraft but it could be useful for people wanting to include 
a gps in their cockpit.

I'm as aware as I can about kln89/gps changes in the code, and I will 
make it compliant with the new system when it will be availble. For now 
it works quite correctly... but, again, it is still a "toy" for advanced 
pilots.

Moreover the Nasal code is a bit ugly, but it uses all my skills about :p...

best regards
seb
