My Dad flies with a 496 and the weather is worth the cost. Unless
that is provided through something else in the plane I cannot see not
getting that for something of this level.


I jumped from the GPS Pilot III to the 496. It STILL amazes me that we can
have this much capability in a single unit. I mean, this stuff would have
cost you over $30K less than 10 years ago.

Plus you can integrate the Zaon XRX into the 496 to get traffic
alerts. Very cool.
