Phenomenal!  I cant wait to install these.  I may be putting 4 in trainers ASAP.

What's the difference between this and a GTN 635?  $4k and a smaller screen?

Edit: It looks like Connext with flight plan transfer is included.  That's nice.  Fingers crossed other devices get an upgrade for that.  My GTN750/GTN650/345r can't do that without a flight stream even though it has Connext through the transponder.

The new GNC355 lacks a conventional NAV receiver, unlike the GTN650.

Right.  I don't know that anyone buys them, but the GTN635 is the same as a de-featured no NAV version of the 650.

my guess is the  GTN 635 probably has more  serial ports and possibly  more ARINC 429 TX/TX pairs.

That is correct.

This will replace my KX155 once it dies.

The 355/370 would make you a nice combo. Replace the 94 and one of the 155’s.

The street price is ~$6k.  Audio panels can cost $2.5k, I can’t imagine a certified waas approach gps/com unit selling new for a similar amount. 

I know my 430w took a hit resale wise today. Closed any notion I had to upgrade to a 440 because I’m sure the price delta has increased.

I know.  I dont care.  This S^$%t is a ripoff.  It's killing GA.  I'm barely hanging on and wondering every day if it's worth it. Might put the old girl up for sale while people are selling E's for 70k and get something experimental.

I,ll buy one to replace my #2 KX155 if:  it will accept crossfill from my Gtn650.  I want flight plan in 650 to go to this device right away using xfill option in 430/650 like boxes.  Otherwise its standalone nav island.

Sorry I’m a newbie, what is 370?

That’s just me going from memory, never a good idea. The Garmin gnx375 would make a great companion to the 355 IMO. Especially if the panel already had an extra nav/com.

MI,

You can always edit your post... to cover your trax....

A 430W killer for sure.   Would be a nice certified source for Dynon Skyview and replace the 170B
