Frank I bought an old Lowrance Worldmap 1000 from a boat for 80 dollars. Lowrance doesn't make them anymore since they figured out that if they change the name to Airmap 1000 they can sell it for a bundle more than a boat owner will shell out. Way cool moving map and huge screen so a magnifying glass isn't needed to see what's on the screen. Not color but the money saved can be better used on radios the way I figure. A quick check of the local boatyards or e-bay under marine section yields a load of treasures that are easily adapted to aircraft usage. Actually been looking at the GPS steering servo from the boat to be used as a simple autopilot. If that servo is strong enough to steer a 40 foot yacht I'm sure it won't have a problem pointing a KR in the right direction. Doug Rupert
Speaking of GPS, I saw a GPS unit that plugs into your computer for about $80 (US) the other day. Looks good for those who are using lap-tops in-flight. Frank
