Re: Tug for 42-VI
You will enjoy the practicality of Redline tug. I use it all the time and just love it. I keep it with me in the aircraft.

Re: GFC 700 upgrade (from The G1000 project - "The next step")
I just got the GFC700 upgrade installed in my DA42. Diamond Quoted 350 hrs for the job. It took them longer. There is a lot more to changing the autopilot than we imagine. Not a simple upgrade.

Rear Passenger Canopy latch opens in flight
