G1000 advice
Time has come with SID's/ageing fleet to start upgrading the old 206's with something a bit newer.
Looking for any advice on realiabilty of the G1000. We work in the bush and I am concerned that going away from analogue could be an issue when our closest LAME is 2 - 3 hours flying away.
How reliable are the G1000 with dust, dirt, rough strips?
If they go down it seems items like fuel gauge, EGT, etc that are still working well but be denied, due to some issue with the G1000 itself, and could ground us in the middle of nowhere more so than analogue ever would.
I Maybe wrong, but as we only run analogue it's a whole new world for me, I realise we have to move down this road, just concerned after hearing a few reports that they aren't really bush tough enough yet.
