I'm not talking about the full TAWS required for turbine operators. I mean
the $500 right-side data card upgrade that's been promised for years. I know the lawyers had to get over the issue of next of kin suing any time someone did a CFIT. But come on; three years of "It'll be available next quarter." Victor J. (Jim) Osborne, Jr. wishing he bought an Avidyne

The issue is still getting the FAA to certify it. It will be out soon after

Mike, Just curious, what's the installation going to cost? I forget but it by far the cheapest TAWS installation availible. As an interesting study in regulation logic, your airplane, and many even smaller than it, are required to install terrain avoidance. The 100,000 lb. 4-engine, 250 kt monster I fly at work isn't. Doesn't have turbines. OK, we give up. What is it? DC-6? Mike MU-2 Happy Flying! Scott Skylane
