If you don’t want Certified IFR – you can drop the $8k GNS 375 – and simply get ADBS for $1-3k (depends if you want in/out or just out)
If you don’t want back up radio – can drop $1k
If you don’t want two AHRS/display – can drop $4k for one display.
Choices of Engines
We recommend Aerovolare Engines – as price to HP to quality – nothing beats them in our opinion
But you can do any engine you want.
