My Cardinal Make Over
I originally bought my Cardinal in Oct of 2011. When I bought it as a friend of mine said it just needed some TLC. Well after buying it I pretty much gutted the inside and did a whole new interior, upgraded some of the avionics, Install JPI 930 (Engine Monitor), all new widows and new fairings. Then in 2013 it got a new paint job.
The last thing was in 2017 it got a new engine, ADSB-Lynx NGT9000, new radios, VOR/ILS, panel mount GPS and an Autopilot from TRUTRAK.
