Argus updates & other considerations .... (OUCH!)
Well, there is a 'downside' to all this fancy "push-the-button" whiz-bang, "Gee, look at that!" equipment, and that's the proprietary interests of the manufacturer. And until you absorb all the...

Choices....
Hey Bob,
You've confused me with the "89/90B" ... what's wrong with the KLN89B model, like the $1295 unit from JA AirCenter? Is the 89B not certifiable for IFR enroute or approach? What's an...

Welcome to the ranks of Cessna Skymaster owners!
I believe you'll find your 400A computer up ABOVE the headliner in the aft area of the cabin. It's either mounted next to the ELT on the right...
