I think you meant to say light aircraft GPS market. No high end biz
jets or airliners have Garmin equipment. Compared to what the big boys
use, the Garmin 530 is a stubborn toy.

So, what do the "high end biz jets" use?

Per acquaintance flying Falcons w/ airline pilot friends,
his equipment was far better than theirs. Judging from
what I'd seen peeking through cockpit doors, would have
to agree.
