Cloud Nine's Cessna 310 was previous equipped with radar (an RDR-130) paid to an Avidyne FlightMax. The previous owner had those items removed and installed in his replacement T310R prior to donation of the plane.
Given the operation the aircraft receives, on-board radar is a necessity. It's also not cheap.
We're looking for a good, used (or new) complete radar unit either discounted or donated to Cloud Nine. As a 501(c)3, all discounts below a retail price are tax deductible.
I've had my eye specifically on RDR-160 and KWX56 models, but am open to other options. Some of the low-powered units that have poor penetration aren't going to be worth the install costs.
Additionally, we're looking at some of the BFG/L3 stormscopes that could be paired to the 530 already in the plane.
Any leads are appreciated.
