Hi all,there have been training programs for Garmin GNS430/530 GPS devices (maybe also other ones), I believe they could be downloaded for free from the Garmin website. Musta been years ago though. *:-* Can't find them anymore on their site.So I am asking if anyone knows what I mean and if yes, if it is still possible to get them somewhere else. Or even better, in the unlikely case anyone still has the installer files, please shoot me a message. I am especially interested in the 430.Thanks in advance.Cheers, :-beerchugEtienne :-wave

You are my hero. Thanks a ton bro. :-hahBut even now I can't figure out which links to follow to get to that page LOL :-lolCheers, :-beerchugEtienne :-wave

I hope that we get the Reality XP GNS products into FSX sometime, I love adding that to one of my GA aircraft, and find it graet practice for the real thing.I also have an add-on program (non-FS) from VFlite that is great for the GNS 430/530 products.Bruce.

Thanks Chris, I might try this, look interesting, especially from your comments.Bruce.

>links look like these below ------------------------->Download 430 Simulator (104 MB .EXE) >Download 530 Simulator (107 MB .EXE)LOL thanks dude - I surely DID find these files on that page - wasn't too hard...! :-lolWhat I meant is, starting from Garmin's home page I still could not find a way TO that page you mentioned. Can't find out how YOU found that page. Not that it is important in any way, since I have the direct download links. I was just curious how you found it. *:-* Sorry for the confusion! :-hahCheers, :-beerchugEtienne :-wave
