Honest to gosh. I want to buy a TRT250 (the pushbutton transponder). Working condition not important. Reason - I want a second so that I can use them as a matched pair of wheel chocks - really. Dennis Brown change the letter o to zero in the email address

I was thinking about a 340..... Any insight out there ? SK

I see on AOPA's web site that the FAA has blown off AOPA and all the other industry groups on DRVSM implementation. Does not getting your biz jet or turboprop outfitted with this equipment mean you won't be able to fly it above FL 290 or only at the new intermediate levels? -- Roger Long
