... Jon, Once you have had a chance to take a good look at it, I'd be interested in learning more about the performance of the wingtip Comm antenna. What...

Don, I have been looking at those two options myself. I like both units, but after viewing them in detail at Oshkosh this year, I am sold on the GRT. I like...
