Dude,

We are all waiting for the 430 units to start shipping or upgrading.


We are? To fly how many WAAS-dependent approaches in IMC per year in
your personal flying, exactly?

As many as possible. I didn't buy a plane to travel from one overcrowded
international airport to another. And even when I do, I want it to be as
safe as possible. They don't have ILS everywhere, the GPS approaches are
safer and simpler to fly, and the more of us that have the recievers, the
more airports will be putting in the approaches.

In fact, the added value that WAAS can bring to GA could end up paying for
the unit when our planes appreciate.
