That's where things get expensive when you need to keep up the databases for all the products.
Keeping up the 90b database is not bad then use it as a reference. Also keeping up the echoflight is not bad including all the noaa charts.
When you start mixing units then things really get expensive.
This is an important consideration if you run around /G. Btw I need to go back and get a refresher course on the kns80 and ..... VOR. BTW I heard some take a Clearance vicor x to yyy, victor y to bbb. and on and on. What was that all about ?
Better yet I heard a clearance given to USAIR last week and he declined to accept a clearance since he was unable to go directly to a WP (intersection direct). Pilot said "you should know better we are a 737.........." Control said "guess there is no budget for an upgrade ? huh "... Some 172's are running around with better avionics than the airline. A captain friend on a 767 uses a 295 as a personal backup..
