I especially like the round beverage dispensers to the left of the EFIS screens, but do you need THREE of them?!?!
WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU!!! MUST HAVE BEEN TOO MANY FLIGHTS TRAPPED IN THE BACK OF AN MD-80 NEXT TO THE JT8D ENGINE!Wow! Very impressive.
Makes the MD-80 look like an antique, probably more capable too...

TODR-
Don't know what you're talking about, nice and quiet up front!
Jason-
How quickly you forget, you -76 snob.
Joe
Sure... Classic, Diet, and Cherry!
Actually those will be filled by an airspeed indicator I bought from you, a TruTrak ADI, and an altimeter that I have yet to purchase since I'm waiting for somebody to come out with one that's cheaper than the Winter. Hey, I have to cut corners somewhere!

Like, say I want 1-GPSw, 1-VOR/LOC, 2-comms, 1-TXP. I would think that would simplify the heck out of installation and do away with the need for the -430's. . . Or if you want the capability of dual 430's, or any combination that the builder wants? (VFR only, 696, 1 comm, 1-txp, etc. . .). . .
Matt,
Does a GDU 370 or 375 + an SL-30 = a GNS430W? I see you have 430s, but is that because you already had them or you wanted quintuple GPS redundancy?
Very impressive panel...obviously the best equipped RV in the Kansas City area. The RV numbers are growing like crazy in the KC area...can't wait for you to join the group fly-outs. With that fantastic panel, you can take lead and provide guidance and weather updates...congratulations

I'm interested to know how the G3X panel would differ from the one I just finished designing in terms of functionality and cost. This is a dual AHRS AFS set up for dual P-Mags.
All other items remaining the same, an equivalent Garmin GDU-3X will be twice ($26K vs $13K) as much as you AFS configuration. But then you can deduct the cost of the 696 making it more like $23K--a $10K difference.

A penny for your thoughts on this one. Should I look at the G3X or would dual Garmin AHRS units push the cost in to outer space for us IFR flyers? Is Garmin thinking about dual AHRS at a reasonable price for the G3X like AFS did for the 4500's?

Here your panel is loaded with high end, quality Garmin components and you are still doing backups! You're a paranoid man, and I love it!
You won't need that high end AP with the AFS solution....
