avionics upgrade


Recommended Posts

I took advantage of Garmin's recent package deal on a GTN 625 and GTX 345(r) for $9,960 .  This is about $5,000 less than regular list price on them separately.  The 625 does not have comm. or vor/ILS but I have a good comm. (sl 40) and my KNS 80 is a great vor/ils /rnav.  I would probably have gone for the 650 but Garmin did not have a special price on them and also, I feel there are advantages to having comm and vor/ILS radios separate from the GPS.  Traffic, weather, and AHRS display on my Area 795 which is yoke mounted. 

I have a couple of glitches to work out but so far I am pleased. The traffic seems to be spot on.

Photos are before / after.

Great setup!  I'm glad Garmin has these deals right now, especially for certified items. Wished they would include the 635 with the proper increase in price. Please take off the factory screen protector on the sl40 :)...looks like the VHS decks some people have with the feature stickers still on the front.
