Hello =
guys

Well you perhaps did see the picture of my new panel, and it really looks g=
ood,=20
but after flying with it hard IFR I have to admit that my currency on the=
=20
Garmins is better than this from the Cheltons. Also to new Garmin GTN750 do=
es=20
not talk to the Chelton (in other words, you can put a flight plan in both=
=20
systems and can switch between the 2 systems for your autopilot).

So I am thinking of selling my Chelton (3 screen system, including the WSI=
=20
module) and getting either the Garmin G500 or a couple of Garmin G3X screen=
s.

Now I asked an avionics shop what my chelton would cost, and he told me tha=
t=20
this is at least 60k. But I know I will not get 60k back for it right now, =
but=20
if someone is interested than make me an offer I cannot refuse and I will g=
et=20
the Chelton out of my plane and start working on my panel again lol

=3D=3D Ronald >65 hours and counting

ps Stuff I really like about the chelton is the VFR approach, also the HITS=
 is=20
pretty good, the engine monitor is very clean and clear.  =20
