Re: Utility of second G3X?
My previous plane had the G3X units side by side. Loved it. My Tsi has the conventional G3X over each seat. Although I miss the closeness, I do need the GNX375 and prop controls close by, and that was not possible with the G3X screens side by side. I normally set the mfd to traffic and moving map, a...
