This sounds great to me. Even though I would not count the GNS430/530
as being among my personal favourites, I know they are _very_ popular
and I've been using such thing at least in two different aircraft. If
I'm not mistaken, this would probably allow FlightGear to drive the
Windows-based series 400 simulation software - buying a real GNS430
just as an add on might be somewhat expensive for the casual user :-)
Please note, while you/we are at it, than "fgfs --help --verbose",
among others, lists the "--garmin=" option, but not the "--AV400=".
Cheers,
Martin.
