Kevin's first solo made me think of my first solo in the heli back in 1997 I have been flying fix wing aircraft since 1980 and to go solo was not unknown to me. I was doing training on an Enstrom at the time and was doing quite well at the time. All the instruction was done by one instructor so...

As this is the ROTORCRAFT forum I don't need to say (but I will) that the gps must be easy to see, easy to operate (1 handed?) and light weight (in case strapped to kneeboard). I have been looking at the Garmin GPSmap 196. It has a black and white screen not the color....
