Thanks for the inputs everyone… I have some things to mull over. @Mongoose Aviator I’m still undecided… I flew in a plane with an Aspen and I liked the functionality of it. Originally I was going to go all in with the GFC-600 and dual GI-275’s but decided to just hold on to the Century a little...
Hello everyone… Just doing some research into a future panel upgrade and I’ve seen and heard ALOT of negative stuff about the EA100 interface into legacy autopilots. I’m aware of the EA100 reliability issues and the display failures I’m wondering if these are a thing of the past now or if it’s...

Brad.. If you’re looking to get back into the game and plan on doing it regularly I’d look into the Northeast Florida Aero Club in St Augustine… They have a Cherokee 180, Cessna 172, and Cessna 182.. all have decent avionics and haven’t been beat up by student pilots. It helps that you have to...

Dumb question… I have a GTX330ES… with the ADB-B requirements I take it the Extended Squitter meets the requirements for flying into the Bahamas? I had trouble finding the terminology verbatim.
Gently used Flight Outfitters iPad Flight Desk… It worked great for me when I was flying club aircraft and now that I moved onto ownership I no longer need it. Retails for $99.95 at Sporty’s.

Totally agree! I picked up my plane on Tuesday afternoon during a break between the rain bands in Daytona and moved it to Ormond and it was a sporty 5 min flight… couldn’t imagine doing it in a 172 the next day!
