Surfing airliners.net I came across this:

Notice the really weird placement of the GPS. To me it looks fake.. What do you guys think?

The picture looks real enough but the "GPS" you are referring to is just a picture in a spare instrument hole. The strangest thing is how clean the aircraft is. That's really spooky!

Yep, definitely NOT a working GPS. Somebody shoved a Garmin 530 screen image into that little vacant instrument hole. Whether by cardboard cutout or Photoshop, I don't know. I just hope the pilot doesn't attempt to navigate using it.... icon_cool.gif

Looks like they pulled that pic off the site! Pity, I wanted to see this GPS contraption; perhaps it could match my navigational skills.
