I'm not sure how the planes are equipped now, i guess the 310s at least are pretty spartan still in their equipment. After a very short period you realize that you don't need that fancy stuff anyway. Most of my prop runs were either flown VFR or if forced to go IFR on radar vectors. My favorite flying 310 had only 2 KX170 nav/comms and a Cessna transponder, that's it. I flew that plane often in the northeast corridor. I'm currently a 757/767 F/O for United Airlines based at ORD.
