I am planning a panel upgrade, and the $500 rebate made me get into gear. I am kinda lucky in that our EAA chapter has an Elite simulator, and we added the 430 to it this year. We rent our simulator at $15/hr (after some free get-acquainted time) so if any of you guys want to keep up on your IFR currency, or learn the 430, you can do it at OVO (North Vernon, Indiana.) I don't know what the instructor charges, but I know he charges $30/hr in the air. Probably the same. We have both the single engine and twin setups. A good deal, and it helps Chapter 1328. We have people coming from about 100 miles to use it.
