I think the size thing has been handled.

Apparently several governments are working on a Differential GPS system that
will give much higher resolution in the near future. Still won't be good
enough for spot landing, I think.

Thanks

The next goal for GPS terminal is size and weight reduction. It helps to
report thermal location in by the thermal-pilot plane or any plane that is
capable to down link GPS info.

The out look goal is to reduce GPS accuracy down to inches. For what?
Landing contest is it. ;-)
