Like GPS, XM weather is undoubtedly great, but it's an aid rather
than a necessity.

Absolutely right. Heck, I know a guy who went coast to coast last
year without ever turning a radio. Everything beyond wings and an
engine is just fluff, in his world.

But if you want to do multi-day cross-country flights regularly, with
confidence, it's hard to beat XM in the cockpit. It simply paints a
big picture of what's ahead in-flight, and that can't be had in any
other way.


Bull****. Complete and utter twaddle. You are an ignoramous.
