Outstanding explanations!
I have returned to flying after a 20-year break, and learning the G430 was something new to me. This course supplemented what my CFI has shown me, and it has helped me understand the capabilities of this system much more than before.

Great initial course on legacy
I had never flown the 430, and my company has some legacy aircraft with this legacy system in addition to what I am currently flying. This is a great initial course on legacy avionics.

GNS-430/530 Familiarization
I found this course very helpful as I began using the Gamin 430 GPS navigator. It brought the learning curve time down and the comfort level up right from the start.
