Default Warrior Equipment Question

I've heard the Seminoles at the VRB/Academy have Garmin 430 GPSs, but what about their Piper Warriors?


What kind of equipment do the Warriors have at FSA?


Do they have DME, LOC/GS VOR, ADF, or perhaps Garmin 430s?

they have VFR and IFR Cadets, (Pa 28-161)

VFR are extrememly basic, they have the six pack and a single com and nav stack.

Ifr, has HSI, DME, dual nav, dual com, ADF, GS and LOC, but no GPS in them.

The Seminoles have the dual GNS 430's and HSI and RMI and all the goodies.

You get good at pilotage and dead reckoning in the VFR cadets.

The majority of all IFR training is done in the Seminoles.
