[Avionics] GI106 compulsory with GNS530 ?
Hello,
We plan to overhaul the panel of our good old PA34 Seneca. Unfortunately, the 2 workshops from whom we requested a quote disagree : - one says the GNS530 we're buying can work with one of the 2 VOR/ILS indicators currently in the plane (these are "KI something", one connected to a KX165 and the other to a KX175B). - the other mechanics asserts we have to buy the specific VOR/ILS indicator from Garmin (GI 106A). The additionnal cost is not that big (still a little more than 1K$ on a total 30K overhaul), but I feel one of the 2 has to be wrong, and I'd rather give this work to a competent guy. Anybody faced this problem before when installing a GNS430 or 530 ? Is the GI106A compulsory to function properly with it ? Thx -- YAG |
