I am working in my IFR status and I need another certified NAV source in my panel to meet the Transport Canada rules and for my own piece of mind.
Currently I have a W430, certified, tied to my Advanced EFFIS. I also have a 496, not certified, that is tied to my autopilot.
I also have a SL40 com in my stack.
The easiest thing to do would be to swap the SL40 for an SL30. However in the next few years quite a few of our local airports will have precision RNAVs based totally on the gps system.
As I already have one VOR in the 430 I would rather have another certified gps in my panel then a second VOR and I am looking for some suggestions.
Panel space is already maxed out and this might be my main limitation for options other then the SL30. Any ideas?
