Industry? No. But the field of GA GPS? Absolutely. When it comes to
GPS receivers for general aviation, Garmin and UPS are not just #1 and
#2, there really isn't a #3. King, Lowrance, and Northstar are all
pretty much non-players at this point. Collins makes great hardware,
but not for the GA market.

This is the kind of merger the FTC would normally disallow on anti-trust
grounds. Imagine Coke buying Pepsi. On the other hand, the market is
so small, I doubt the FTC cares much.
