Yoke-mounted GPS

The USAF bought a buttload of Bendix-King handheld GPS/VHF hand helds back in the early 90's. I think it was the KLX100. There was a donkey dick antenna made for it to go in the sextant port.

I had one myself that they gave me to verify bad antennas, but I liked to use it more for VHF radio troubleshooting. Someone felt that they needed it more than me.

At the recent CNS/ATM Conference I saw some really nice yoke mounted GPS units that the manufacturer had on display. I've never seen one in use on an aircraft though. Eventually they will replace all the the paper charts.
