    From pilot to A/P?

    I'm glad to read this thread. I did exactly this. I completed my A&P 2022. I just turned 50 at the time. It has saved me a lot of money. I use the folks as Savvy to questions if needed.

    Cheapest IFR Panel - Starting from nothing?

    tailBeaconX TSO + AV-30-C Bundle

    If I understand correctly, its only via an external source that shows one segment at a time and VFR only. I'm starting to lean towards the GI275. I do like the fact that with the new TailBeacon X, I can use the AV30C as a Transponder.
