GPS)
Argus 7000CE coupled to KLN-90B
Ryan TCAD 9900B coupled to Argus and Garmin (what daddy thought was a "bell and
whistle" is now a "required item" around here - spots other
airplane traffic usually before they're visible)

KFC-150 Yaw Damper
(basically, this thing flies like a
commercial plane on the autopilot - if daddy wants, he can turn on the autopilot
shortly after take off and turn it off about 200' above the ground before
landing. But that takes away most of the fun, so he generally only uses it
during the cruise and initial descent portion of the flight!)
David Clark 6 Place Intercom
Wired for Bose X headsets in the cockpit
Pilot’s and Copilot’s Control Wheel Mic Button
Other Equipment:

on little Cessna's, daddy didn't think this would be important - wrong!!)
B&C Standby Alternator System
Electric Standby Air
Pressure ("vacuum") pump
Gamijector Fuel Injector Nozzles
Executive Writing Desk (that's that tray table in the
back)
Instantaneous Vertical Speed Indicator

cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter)
Rosen Sun Visors - 3
axis
Strobe Lights - 3 Light System
Courtesy Lights and Timer
Bottom Mounted Red Rotating Beacon
Pilot’s Control Wheel Map Light
Copilot Brakes
Reiff engine
pre-heater (to avoid engine damage and to ease starting
in that cold, northern weather)
AstroTech Panel
Mounter Quartz Chronometer (there's actually 3 timers
on board - guess we got a little carried away)
Main Gear Taxi Lights
(great on the ground for taxiing and during the final
approach to make us look like a small jet :-))
Daddy's wish list (stay tuned):
Tip Tanks (to give us
more carrying capacity and/or another hour or two of fuel - we currently can't
make Dallas non-stop)
Another 30 knots or so
(what else is new?)
"Known
icing" (FIKI) capability
