IFR GPS certification
Sorry about the x-post but didn't know where to ask the question.
I guess I've been living under a rock. I wanted to update the VFR GPS in the panel to an IFR model. I started getting quotes on recon GNC 300XLs. The units themselves were about 2,500-3,000. I was shocked to find out that I had to install an annunciator, a new indicator and approx 30 hrs labor bringing the total cost to around 8,000. I checked several shops and got the same story. Is it typical to spend 25% of the value of the aircraft on just the IFR GPS? If I installed a 530, the receiver and install would probably cost close to 80% of the value of the aircraft. Eddie
