Hi,
In case anyone is interested i figured that i'd give a pirep on the purchase and installation of this unit. I'd love to have a gtn 750, but i can't justify the price. I currently have a garmin (apollo) gx50 gps and a kt 76c transponder. So this will replace both, get me WAAS navigation, ads-b in and out plus garmin connext. I think that i'll put one of the ipad mini panel mounts next to it so that i will have a larger screen for traffic, weather etc... The street price is around $7000 plus some install.
But really for the money for someone that needs ads-b and doesn't already have WAAS gps i think it's the way to go. I guess waiting until the last minute to upgrade to ads-b worked out this time for me!
I'll update as i go, the install will be at the beginning of May.
Oh and my airplane is a 1978 Piper Archer II
