I think he already said that judging by your location and age,it would be a waste of time
If you're referring to me, fine. I'm not going to argue the point. I'm probably the wrong one to do it anyway. I never scratched a piece of tin in thirty years of flying and only shut down ONE piston engine [an R-2800], and throttled back on ONE turbine engine [a JT-8]. As close as I came to onboard computers was the 737-300. I spent most of my time telling the Co-Pilots to get their head OUT of the cockpit and look outside for traffic instead of playing with the computer all the time.

All I can say is.....Good Luck with all your fancy stuff. We got along just fine without it. I will admit though, it was nice to have INS between the mainland and Hawaii. But.....there again, we found the Islands without it too.
