Your normal avionics package is so good that strict certification rules are not necessary anymore. I don't think manufacturers are into building cheap goods that will be thrown away or returned when their electronics bring the plane into trouble or cannot enable navigation past 20 miles. I wonder where the japanese are in this market? ctvax!uokvax!uok!mpackard
