Username Protected wrote: Kevin, I missed your original post on finally buying a plane. You did well! That is a fine specimen of a Bonanza. I love the Apollo UPSAT avionics. What is there to upgrade on the 480? Keep us posted on your training and adventures. As for that fly-in...take your instructor for the flight. Enjoy the beautiful plane. Thanks Max! It's a truly amazing machine and I am truly lucky to be able to own it and fly it. My GNS-480 was never updated to the 2.x software so it needs to go back to Garmin AT for a hardware and software update. I think I need a new GPS antenna as well. We will see what the shop says here in a couple of days. Kevin

You did good Kevin, that panel is beautiful. There was a recall on the 480 where Garmin paid for the upgrade and new antenna. I don't know if it's still available but may be. Jerry

It was about .9 AMU to pay to have it done in May. Kevin
