Cleared for Takeoff
I have previously read about how the 396 has a much slower XM Weather refresh rate than the 496.
One of my partners has a 396 and has offered to leave it in the plane if the rest of us split the XM weather subscription cost. While I have been seeking a weather solution for the plane for some time I am a little concerned over what I remember reading in the past. Another alternative would be to sell the 396 and purchase a 496 (with the other partners paying the difference) however the difference in price is looking like $1,400.
For those of you that know, would you use the 396 or would you insist on trading up? The idea is not to pick your way real time through cells but to simply avoid blundering into them when you're in the soup.
