    Best Inexpensive Avionics Suite

    I believe that the plane has the Garmin audio panel and a GX55 GPS. I would need decent Navcomms plus glide slope and Xpndr.

    Best Inexpensive Avionics Suite

    So I am considering a vintage project plane that currently has little to no avionics installed. What would be a representative price deduction compared to a similar plane with a full basic IFR suite of radios? What would be a resonable cost to install a basic IFR suite in the plane with no...
