Hey Jack,
I thought that Garmin had a set price ( .6 AMU) for their repairs? Our
430's comm board went TU and we were charged a flat fee to completely go
through the unit and have it refurbished. Not only did they replace the
bad board, but they also replaced the display (the anti-reflective
coating was worn), the bezel (paint was worn off), as well as updating
to the current firm and software. Basically, we got a completely
refurbished unit.

Interesting Jon. Maybe their flat rate increased by .015 AMUs. Perhaps
I'll do a little investigative phone calling to Garmin.


I hope that your bird gets back to the air soon. I know ya miss her....

Yes, I sure do. Though, with a distinct lack of flyable weather around
these parts much of the past month+, we sure picked the right time for
the work to get done.
