C525 - Cockpit panel upgrade

Hello,

Considering the cockpit panel of the first C525's here come the time to think about rebuilding our.
I've read a lot about G1000.
What kind of other solutions exist on the market ?
Any feedback ?

Thx +++

The GTN750 is a pretty cost effective option but you will probably want to back it up with something you can actually program a holding pattern into!
If you want you can combine it with the G500 PFD/MFD set up - still cheaper than G1000 I believe.

As usual it depends on your budget but combined with a Jepp Chartview subscription it's a pretty useful set up

Much more detail on Garmin's website including a downloadable GTN750 trainer.
