magine you’ve just finished installing a bunch of
equipment in a customer’s plane. It has a spiffy new
WAAS-enabled GPS navigator with moving map, a
built-in Blu-ray DVD player for the passengers and stereo
headphone jacks at each seat. To fit all the new stuff, you
removed a functioning ADF and its antennas but left behind a 121.5 MHz emergency locator transmitter. Despite
your best efforts, the customer declined to mount a Mode

wish him good luck, knowing the work you did will serve

to use. If his answer is no, you have two more choices.
The first one is to shake his hand, make sure he has your
email address for his trip updates and pictures, and wish
him luck again. The second choice is to roll his airplane
back into your hangar and get on the phone to order new
equipment for his trip.
When considering equipping for international flight operations, there usually are more questions than answers,
at least at first. The quickest, simplest answer to whether
or not existing avionics will be adequate is, “It depends.”
