Yeah... pretty much. We got it as a "project plane." No avionics
and half the flight instruments were broken. I sniffed out good deals on
avionics and installed a full digital King IFR stack... then earned my
instrument rating in it. Dual nav/com, ILS/GS, MB, VFR GPS, DME, RNAV...
didn't want to bother installing an ADF.
