Seminole with Avidyne Displays for rent?

[Michael95U]

Anyone know where a friend of mine could rent such an aircraft? He is adamant about flying a twin with glass for his multi engine training and is not interested in the DA-42. Any help would be appreciated!

(and don't bother with the he doesn't need glass line; he received his PPL and IR in a Cirrus. All he knows is glass).

FIT in Melborune, FL? They've got a glass PA-44, albeit at 330/hr. https://www.fitaviation.com/

Just fly the Twinstar for that money.

JA Air @ ARR has a seminole with a glass panel, not sure how much they want for it anymore.

yup thats the one. last i knew it was CHEAP

The plane in ARR is a Garmin G500 if that really makes a big difference to him.

Yeah, N449JA with a G500 at ARR (JA Air Center) is $250/hour now. When I started flying it in 2010 it was only $149/hr. But they do have a pretty good block time rate for 10, 20, 30 and 50 hour blocks that can get the price down quite a bit. Glass to spare for sure.

Seriously? Considering a G1000 172 here at LGB goes for 150/hr wet which is a GOOD price...how is this even possible?

Sounds like a perfect reason to go steam this time around.
