Todd, The one problem I have found with the iFly is on the approach plates. If you are going to use the approach plate feature, be aware that the entire plate does not fit on the screen. You will have to slew it around to see the bottom numbers (MDA, DH and such). If you were going to fly ANY IFR my recommendation would be to have paper plates in front of you for an approach you might need to make. For VFR/IFR high this would be an excellent thing to have in the plane. One could argue flying an IFR approach in the KR is not wise, but I would disagree with that assessment unless icing were a factor. Other than that, I have a few hours fiddling around with the iFly. It is a solid product, and the company, as you said, is planning some very nice upgrades. It is viewable in bright sunlight, a very useful feature in the KR series. If someone does a lot of flying outside their local patch, this is a great way to have all the charts available for those cross country flights. My opinion.
