[C38] Advice

[Richard West]

We've had Nexus instruments on Legacy for the past 7 years or so and they've
been GREAT.  We have their autopilot as well.  I particularly like the wind
instrument.  We also have their remote.  With it, you can change the display
on any instrument as well as get additional information.  I highly recommend
Nexus.
