Can someone give me the definition of "technically advanced aircraft avionics"? My insurance update has the blank and I want to make sure I meet the definition before I put anything other than zero inthe blank.

Chartis defines it as having a moving map GPS (IFR certified?), terrain / traffic advisory, and a 2 axis auto pilot. Others may have other definitions.

OK. No traffic yet. If I breakdown and add ADS-B it sounds like I would meet the requirement. The ADS-B would also cover the weather as well.

...and if you stay up to date and document all of this, then they will give you about a 5% rate credit (approx a hundred bucks for most RV-sized policies).

Huh, , it will cost me several hundreds of dollars to save 100. I will leave that blank blank.
