Congratulations Beachcomber!  Let us know how you enjoy the GDL-39!

And class act, Crusader16!    Positive Karma credits! 

I sure will, picking up the gear today and weather permitting, will be testing it this Saturday in route to KCXO!

I guess I didn't read the "fine" print that stated that you had to be a resident of Texas to win the raffle. 

Congrats Beachcomber. You'll love the GDL unit and what it can do. Having weather while in route is the best!.

Thanks Shawn, looking forward to using it!

Congrats "Beachcomber" on winning the -39.  You will have lots of fun with it in the Dallas/Ft.Worth area.  Fly safe and we'll see ya in the air!

Thanks Bob!

Thank you Dave and THANK YOU Bob for the donate back!  Can't say I've ever won anything and I've actually been eyeing this.  I need additional backup and portable units so this is very exciting to be able to win this.  Thank you...like a little kid at Christmas!

As a newbie, good to know.  Thanks for the info Shawn.

Correct, they are not charging ports, they are for the EFIS and EMS. My point was why not locate 2 ports for powering our portable devices in the center console where the cigarette lighter use to be. Having the cigarette lighter high up in the right corner as in the photo of the new plane leads to cords in the way. Do the "designers" ever fly the planes?

 

 

 

Those two USB ports while for the EIFS and EMS, also charge my iPad.  Seems to keep it charged pretty well during flight.  However, as mentioned earlier, the location of the cord by my knee isn't the best design!
