My dad bought and sold a few Pipers all totaled together for less than
that... ;)

This is WAY cheaper if you already have the equipment...

Hi,

I have had a look at the oziexplorer software you suggested, but it
seems that this is just a mapping tool. The VistaNav application
provides a real time 2D moving map display and 3D synthetic vision.
On the hardware side it includes a three axis inertial measurement unit
to provide attitude information in addition to just position and speed.
The unit also has a barometric pressure sensor for barometric
altitude.
