Good Introduction
The course does a good job highlighting the features of the GTN 650.  Now I need to get hands on experience in our airplane that is about to be delivered back to us from the avionics shop with its new GTN 650 installed.  I will probably find myself referring back to the various parts of this course as I start flying with the actual unit.
