To answer the previous question, all a/c currently have a single FMS installation. Google "KNS 660", that's what we have in the 100s. Less and less a/c have a moving map now that they are replacing the old radars with new ones that are not compatable with the old 660. So yea, the G1000 crowd will be a little shocked at how we operate.
I believe the UNS replacement unit will interface with the new radar for mapping, etc as they are both Universal Products. On the other hand, my low chart skills are now second to none. VOR quiz time: 115.0, 112.2, 111.2, 109.4, 112.5, 112.8, 111.0, 113.2, 116.5, 117.5
