I'm told that Trimble is exiting the flying machine business for other fields with bigger volumes and bigger bucks. They've entered a partnership with Caterpillar, to put GPS on all Cat rental equipment. They're also big in farm tractor GPS, again with huge volumes compared to aircraft.. .. .Sort of puts the aviation business into perspective.
