      They are if you go on Garmin website there are some prices listed but if it were aftermarket I’d estimate 100.000-170.000 for the displays and integrated avionics then another 80.000-130.000 for the non integrated plus roughly 100.000 for the install

      The 650s and 750s are indisposable assets. Very useful with pretty displays. Yeah, can be a bit shocking to see a little screen worth over 10Gs

    The helicopter tail number is written in the cockpit, top right, above the artificial horizon. If you blur it out at the beginning of the video you should do it there as well.

      He’s only moderately careful about hiding his employer’s info, but I think he’s said before he’s not that concerned about it. He just doesn’t want it to be obvious but isn’t going to meticulously comb through and redact everything.

  • @dogboy0912
    @dogboy0912 3 ปีที่แล้ว +19

    I thought the dual Garmins were especially sweet. The GTN 650 is already very powerful, so having that with the 750 would be a dream. Those gps panels are some of the biggest SA builders you can have in the cockpit. Being able to have it do power calculations like hige/hoge and w+b is also pretty awesome. People may not realize but altitude and atmospheric conditions have a huge effect on rotary wing. No helicopter "likes" being at 5000ft. Idk what the civilian pathway to doing this looks like (well actually you probably just go get your commercial and build some hours), but I will say there are an awful lot of reservists who are air ambulance pilots.
