I don’t know what comes with other ground schools but with this one in addition to the course there is lesson plans, syllabus, all endorsements, flow charts, advisory circulars, ground school lessons, and more that I can’t think of off the top of my head. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

CFI Bootcamp has a great online groundschool and it comes with many extras to help you even after you pass the ride. It is very expensive though. I bought the groundschool and did a lot of it but didn't complete all the work. I started doing 2 hour ground lessons with an instructor and...

We installed dual G5's and an Avidyne 440 along with the GFC 500 in our 182H. Its an incredible combination. I only have about 5 hours with the setup right now but I have to say the autopilot has performed flawlessly. I'm finishing up my IR training now and the amount of work it takes off of...

We just weighed our 182H after a panel makeover and our useful is only 955lbs. Can't believe she is that porky

We also added an Avidyne ifd-440 and Trio auto pilot. He did want us to wait until we could do it all at once as it did keep costs down some.

We used Palmetto Avionics out of Greenwood SC. Russ does excellent work and has always been very reasonable on prices.

Just had a dual G5 system put in our 182 as part of a larger avionics upgrade. Paid $4900 for the two units and $2000 labor to install. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We have a Garmin 250xl we just removed for an Avidyne 440 for sale. It's still at the avionics shop now.

We just went through the same debate. We even bought a very nice used 300xl and annunciator and to make everything legal. Our avionics shop dissuaded us though due to the fsdo approval costs. We decided to go all in and are putting in a 440. If you decide to go the 300 route let me know and I'll...

We are actually getting the Trio system in the next few weeks. This single axis stec can be useful for someone until their model gets an stc however. We are fortunate to be flying the test model of the trio. I'll check the costs for stc transfer Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Selling our Stec 20 altitude hold. Works perfectly in our 182H. Will have better pictures shortly. $4000 obo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Selling our Garmin 300xl with annunciatior. Perfect for a low cost IFR panel. We are upgrading to the ifd-440 so no longer needed. Garmin GNC 300XL GPS P/N 011-00433-00 S/N 95105675 $2500 obo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks. Exactly the type of advice we are looking for. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sorry yes that's what I meant. We are finding it less than ideal the further into training we are getting. Our instructor (high time full time instructor) has gotten pretty frustrated the further into training we have gotten. Without dme or IFR gps she thinks it's pretty impractical as well...

Thanks! We've put a lot of work into it. When we first bought it it was your typical black shotgun panel and bow tie yokes. Our Mechanic made the panel and We've spent a lot of time sourcing good used components. It's been a great VFR panel. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We haven't given thought to the Aspen. I was under the impression it was much more expensive and was a difficult install? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We were quoted $10k to install a 430w by our avionics shop. The 650/440 was quoted at $11.5k. For that difference it seems silly to buy the old technology. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
