Bendix/King KLN94 GPS ..any simulotor? any sim add-on?
Hi all, We have several club aircraft with the KLN 94 GPS. Is there
still no one making a sim for this GPS? Seems like *SOMEONE* would fill this gap by now. Like Microsoft, the huge MS sim aftermarket world, Bendix/King themselves, Elite, anyone? The KLN 94 is in a ton of Cessna aircraft. First and foremost shame on Bendix/King for not getting a sim together. I emailed them several times over a year or two, but they finally dropped the project. I consider it a safety issue. Personally, I find any kind of PC sim, is the best way to get up to speed quickly in prep for the real thing. It's going through the motion of finding the buttons and pressing them in the correct order. Reading the manual doesn't do this for you. (though reading the manual is an essential) Garmin has done a great job with the G1000 and it's now in FSX deluxe version. I read the KLN 94 manual and went up and flew the real thing yesterday. I had my head down poking at that thing when I should have been spending more time scanning for traffic. I knew it pretty well, but if you fly several rental aircraft, you fumble for the position of the buttons and all the little gotcha's. Am I missing anything that's come out recently? Thanks for letting me rant. ... aKiley |
