Makes me wonder what the G2000 will look like.
I flew a Cirrus something or other (the first model they produced) as the company that owned the company I used to work for thought about buying Cirrus.

What a machine, I was amazed with the avionics. More advanced than the Primus 1000 I was driving around. Too much for me to handle. The Cirrus demo pilot showed us all the bells and whistles. The TAWS was the first I saw in GA, and was the BEST feature.

The G1000 has amazing capability. I'll be interested to see how it flushes out.
