I'm sorry, but Mr. Javad is on crack. A simple WAAS upgrade on a GENERAL AVIATION aircraft already costs about $8000 fully installed. This includes an antenna upgrade that I remember to be about $3000 installed for the antenna itself. $500 per plane to fix the issue? Yeah right.

The cost of such retrofits is under $500 per aircraft. It would cost less than $20M to fix any existing issues within the industry and only take a few months to complete. Please also note that all existing GPS receivers are semi-obsolete and will soon need to be replaced anyway (with or without LightSquared) because current systems do not track the modernized signals of GPS, GLONASS and Galileo. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
