I've upgraded! (again) so my trusty Garmin Aera 550 is available. Yoke mount, car thing, AC power pack, DC power adapter, user's manuals, box, etc - everything in the photo. Screen is bright and crisp. Databases WERE current as of the end of May 2016. Has Safe Taxi, etc. Superb option to have in the cockpit. Also has a protective carrying case in the event you don't want to leave the unit in the cockpit but want to leave the yoke mount in there. I had this connected to my Garmin GDL39 (not included in this sale) for free ADS-B weather and traffic. Totally worth it if you don't have it. What Garmin has to say:

Peugeot 90X breaks cover

Thu, 04 Nov 2010

Once a well kept secret in Peugeots Sport factory in Vélizy, near Paris, Peugeots new 2011, codenamed 90X, has been out and about for its first test at the Monza track. While the 90X complies with the new ACO's 2011 regulations, it still requires some considerable amount of work to be done to be ready for 2011. A curvier windscreen and slight change to the nose but the biggest changes are the new fin leading from the cockpit to the rear spoiler, aimed to offer more down force and avoid flipping in the case of a high speed crash.
