| Okay, so it's not quite aviation related, but we DID
use the 496's
| capability today to navigate by road to Blakesburg --
the annual AAA
| (Antique Aircraft Association) fly-in.

| Jay, is there a service that provides periodic updates
to the 496's road
| and food service database? If so, how is this done and
what does this
| cost?
|
| I'm not sure, but I presume that is updated at the same
time that you
| purchase the Jeppesen updates?
