jgarrison Posted August 6, 2012 Report Posted August 6, 2012 $2,000. Just pulled out of a 650 hour, always Arizona hangared aicraft. Annunciator available also (24V). I may have a 12V around somewhere, not sure. Thanks, Jimmy 1 Quote
carusoam Posted August 6, 2012 Report Posted August 6, 2012 Jimmy, Any ideas on the benefit of the kln 94 over my current kln 90b? Such as vertical guidance during IFR approaches. Otherwise the color screen looks nice. Thanks. Best regards, -a- Quote
fantom Posted August 9, 2012 Report Posted August 9, 2012 Years ago, I went from a 90B to a 94 and found it to be a huge improvement. Much easier to read, logic about the same, installation was not plug and play but about a grand. Data card much better front loading. I am not sure it's supported anymore. Annunciator is not required if it's in your center stack; I may still have the FAA paperwork somewhere, not that it's required. Quote
N601RX Posted August 9, 2012 Report Posted August 9, 2012 It's a drop in replacement for the KLN 89B, not he 90B. The only thing it requires is a new flight manual supplement. King has a 1 page document that covers the requirements. Quote
danb35 Posted August 9, 2012 Report Posted August 9, 2012 The KLN-94 is not WAAS, and thus does not give glidepath indication on approaches. Quote

carusoam Posted August 9, 2012 Report Posted August 9, 2012 I agree about the prettiness, I used one for IFR training for some basic navigation. What the students did to it though was impressive... It looks like a touch screen, but it isn't. The students crushed the screen in certain spots until they realize that it's not a touch screen. That could be expensive and annoying... I am looking forward to a waas upgrade.... Best regards, -a- Quote
Lionudakis Posted August 9, 2012 Report Posted August 9, 2012 is the gps 12 and/or 24volt? or were you refering to annunciator only? Quote
carusoam Posted August 9, 2012 Report Posted August 9, 2012 DanB, It's like using a VOR and DME only easier. If you drive the AP with it, it's nice and smooth. It loads complete IFR procedures and plots the waypoints on the screen. It can memorize several flight plans, do nearest, full database. It was considered modern technology until Garmin went WAAS. Overall it's a nice device if you don't have one. Jimmy's price is pretty good too. Keep in mind, I have purchased my KLN90B from Jimmy before, it was attached to a few other things as well!

jetdriven Posted August 10, 2012 Report Posted August 10, 2012 The KLN-89B and 94 wil not talk to any GPSS unit, the roll output is to poor. Funny, though, the KLN-90B will. Quote

Cris Posted August 10, 2012 Report Posted August 10, 2012 Quote: allsmiles ...and worse. It is my understanding, the display on the KLN units is not supported any longer by Honeywell! Which means if the display goes there is no help. Quote
carusoam Posted August 10, 2012 Report Posted August 10, 2012 Sorry Dan, My bad... It seems that my memory challenges are leading me to do strange things. Like attribute responses incorrectly and seek the purchase of a GPSS unit. Fortunately for me, as Byron pointed out, the KLN90B is capable of connecting to a GPSS. Thanks guys for the approved strategy for improving my GPS situation. Sorry Jimmy, I didn't mean to distract your original post. But, Do you have any extra GPSS units laying around that I might be able to help you out with? Note: Jimmy is a wonderful individual to do business with, if the opportunity comes your way.... Back to researching GPSSs... Best regards, -a- :-) Quote

RonM2OC Posted August 30, 2012 Report Posted August 30, 2012 Whould you happen have the cables to connect a laptop to the 89B for sale (to download the mapping data)? Quote

carusoam Posted August 31, 2012 Report Posted August 31, 2012 Jimmy, Is your "quick reply" not working right? It's the one at the bottom of the page.... Then use the submit button... If you use the edit function, the submit button is mis labeled as "edit" or something like that... Best regards, -a- Quote
jgarrison Posted August 31, 2012 Author Report Posted August 31, 2012 Was not working yesterday. Trying a different computer. Could not PM either. Quote
aerobat95 Posted August 31, 2012 Report Posted August 31, 2012 Someone asked if BK was supporting the KLN 94. At OSH this year BK announced at the BBQ the 94 would no longer be supported. Walt Quote
carusoam Posted August 31, 2012 Report Posted August 31, 2012 Funny...the 94 is their newest version, I think? Maybe they're coming out with a new version with vertical guidance for GPS approaches? -a- Quote
