I am going to try and find a helicopter in the area with a RadAlt and fly the helicopter and see exactly what information I am receiving. Since I never flew with this tool before I would like to try it before committing to it. I would love to hear from pilots who have flown with RadAlt and get their opinion on the pros and cons of this option. The cost factor is not what is preventing me from making a decision. With the new GX the HTAWS is also a feature which gives a tremendous amount of information as well.
I will fly her for a while as is and hopefully with some more cornet information and opinions I will be bale to make a proper decision for my exact needs.
