I was just surprised it locked at that speed. I figured a handheld unit would
not be able to lock at that speed. Looking back on it now, it makes sense it
shouldn't have too much trouble. (Once I learned it worked I started to ask
about the GPS more. If you ask politely, a lot of times they will let you turn
on stuff once at altitude, which is great fun!)
Now you have me thinking. Anyone know what the Garmin GPSMAP60CS and GPSMAP62ST
use for gps chip sets? (For some reason I just can't bring myself to pull the
covers off!)

I think it's supposed to work up there.
Cocom limits used to be 50,000 feet and 1000 knots if I am not mistaken.
Most GPS will likely support those Cocom limits even if they state something
like 2000 meters max altitude etc.
A commercial flight should certainly work, besides the problem of only
seeing one side of the sky on the plane..
