Thanks for all of your assistance. Gave Garmin SA a call this morning and they refered me to: Century Avionics at Lanseria. THAT was who I was looking for. They did inform me that even though they could do the updates they would also recommend I follow "V's" suggestion and do it myself. So thanks! L...

Like the design AND it's a well done paint job!!!

Awesome aerie!
Also astounded when I see the short field performance of the CH701!
No doubt a toy you'll enjoy!!

I hope you don't mind me joining the queue behind you, but:
I have a Challenger II which would also require hangarage around Durbanville ASAP...
Thanks

If the money's good I'm prepared to take off my shirt, but no pictures of my 'aerial'!!

Sorry for the hijack...

I also have the GoPro HD and it's an impressive little camera. Doesn't seem all that high tech, but I get great (HD) results with it!!
