Navcom - handheld VS panel ?
Hello everyone - my first posting here.
I'm in the process of equipping my Earthstar thundergull with avionics. This is a very light tandem 2 seater. I was wondering what type of navcom to go with...handheld or panel mounted. Panel space is limited , so a panel radio choice would probably be the Microair. But this is substantially more expensive than handhelds. What are the disadvantages of a handheld ? Would you recommend a specific handheld make & model ? The aircraft does have an external antenna. I do intend to fly into class C & D airspaces. I do need intercom. I do need squelch. All input much appreciated. thanks Pavan Bhatnagar (PPASEL to be) |
