Finally got one of these installed in my plane.  If you fly a lot, especially IFR and have a 430 or 530, this thing is awesome!  I flew to SoCal yesterday.  About 1/4 way through the flight, I got a complete reroute, with a couple victor airways. I believe it was 11 waypoints.  In the past, I’ve had to spin the knob for a few minutes.  Not a big deal in VMC, but handflying IMC, that’s a real chore.  

This time, I just punched the screen of the iPad a few times, and hit send to panel, done! Took 15 seconds at most.  

Great upgrade!

I fully agree. I installed the system about three years ago and I love it.

I agree! I really had no idea just how useful this would be either until I bought an airplane with it already installed.

Second most useful install.  First was an Audi panel where I could hear ATC.  This is a strong second. It’s awesome how much it reduced workload.
