Does the TAP ad say it has a Garmin something or other? Usually the WSI
airborne system is use for the AviDyne MFD.


Anybody know about cost compared with XM?"

Since that's in-flight, perhaps Paul was looking at the wrong product
in the WSI price list, since the original query seems to be
specifically about their airborne equipment as found in listings found
on Trade-A-Plane.

WSI in-flight is more typically used with AviDyne and other higher end
avionics like the stuff from Honeywell and Universal. It would be good to
know what the TAP ad's showed regarding the rest of the avionics suite
aboard.


Not according to WSI.

They seem to be able to display on all sorts of stuff, including
EHSIs, EFBs, laptops, and PDAs.

Geez...


Strange the King KMD550/850 isn't listed.

The King system is proprietary and transmitters are land-based, not
satellite.


The Garmin 430/530 and MX20
(GMX200) are though. It doesn't need an Avidyne MFD system like an
SR22 to run.
