I'll report back if this does the trick. Anyone know of a nifty little

I used velcro to secure the antenna to the upper left corner of the
plastic sun visor, then ran the wire down inside the window trim.

O.K. Great idea. 99% of the time, the visor is stowed in the "up"
position. I can mount it on top of the visor in a way that swinging the
visor down just inverts the antenna. Will it work inverted, or sideways?
Thanks,

Probably not. The antenna is a patch antenna backed up by a metal
ground plane. If you turn it upside down it will not be facing the
satellites, so if it works at all your signals will be very weak.
Sideways it might be OK if the satellite is visible from that side of
the airplane.
