Greetings,
I am training in a 172 that is all steam gauges, but the training center has a DA40 that is equipped with a G1000. I am thinking that if I were to rent after getting my PPL, I would prefer the DA40 (even though I have not actually flown one) I am also thinking my passenger (aka wife) would prefer something more modern.
There is a slight cost increase per hour for the DA40, but I am thinking that I would rather build my hours in what I would prefer to fly, rather than just getting a checkout in the DA40 once I have my PPL.
Thoughts anyone?
-Ken
