There's also a few cars, trucks, emergency vehicles, hand-helds and timing receivers that he didn't bother to mention at all. I suspect most of those would be "fixed" by complete replacement. (If a full fix is even possible in all situations.)

I'm sorry, but Mr. Javad is on crack.

A simple WAAS upgrade on a GENERAL AVIATION aircraft already costs about
$8000 fully installed.

This includes an antenna upgrade that I remember to be about $3000
installed for the antenna itself.

$500 per plane to fix the issue? Yeah right. In what world does he live  in?

The cost  of such retrofits is under $500 per aircraft. It would cost less
than $20M to  fix any existing issues within the industry and only take a
few months to  complete. Please also note that all existing GPS receivers are
semi-obsolete  and will soon need to be replaced anyway (with or without
LightSquared)  because current systems do not track the modernized signals of
GPS, GLONASS  and Galileo.
