Bear in mind that the panel and engine model change for fuel injection!

It's a reasonable combination.  Check whether the GPS is IFR approved;
if it isn't you (a) cannot do approaches with it and must file /U and
(b) it needs to be able to drop offline occasionally due to lack of RAIM.

I think we'll have a bunch of existing simulator pilots being a bit
surprised how hard navigation is, when you omit DME and have no moving map...
