    GFC700 v. KAP 140?

    For 18K they are installing it for free, They need to check again, SB-07-34-07 says the price is $18,295.00 plus install the rebate from Garmin has passed no longer any good, in 05 the rear Amsafe rear belts were a option, not standard like the 06 and 07 and on. I would have them do it for $18k...

    GFC700 v. KAP 140?

    "Actually the GFC700 has envelope protection, IIRC, and won't stall in VS mode. " Yes you have that correct, The KAP will pull the plane up to a stall by pulling up so much it lowers the airspeed. The GFC will not let the plane fly below 70kts but that is not to say you can not stall it, in...

    GFC700 v. KAP 140?

    "Back to original question. lets say 25k diff in the year model 15k for gfc 700 18k WAAS" The WAAS is going to be about $21K after install and still will not couple. The auto pilot is only worth what the buyer wants so for me it was easy $40k for others it could be $10 If the plane is a 04 or...

    GFC700 v. KAP 140?

    Yes the GFC will not let the plane fly too slow in the VS mode. But you could still stall it in other ways, with the AP on. The new ESP is coming soon from Garmin, that does not let the plane fly out of the envelope even with the AP off.

    GFC700 v. KAP 140?

    No, there is no upgrade for the Cirrus to to have the GFC700 only if you have the Avidyne then you can go to the new attitude based AP and release 9. The Diamond has the G1000 with the 55x but no upgrade to the GFC. The Cirrus does not have a G1000 with a 55x it would be the Avidyne. And the...

    GFC700 v. KAP 140?

    SVT is about $9k and you have to buy 2 -43 GDU bottom cards they cost over $1000.00 for both. The AP does so much more and better integration and couples to VNAV than the KAP140. that is not all you get, you also get WAAS and that is more than $17k plus install. To me the auto pilot and WAAS...

    GFC700 v. KAP 140?

    Very unlikely because all the new G1000 planes are coming with the GFC700 and I have had mine for 3 1/2 years the 2007 is the same as the 2011 and my 2007 price has held steady now.

    GFC700 v. KAP 140?

    I now have the GFC700 in my 182T 2007, before that I had the 2004 182T with the G1000 and KAP140 AP. I ended up selling the 2004 182 because I found out the KAP140 WILL NOT couple to the Glide Path on a LPV, if you upgrade to WAAS. I have never looked back, the KAP140 is a good AP but the GFC700...
