Need New IPad

[Counselor]

Dinosaur IPad dying on me. What are you all using for CFI work - mini's or larger? Thanks.

Usually, it's all in what you prefer and fits the cockpit. I think most are using a Mini but the Pros are coming in strong. I can see where a larger screen would be great for ground sessions.

Personally, I use a Mini but if I were in the market now, I wouldn't buy a Mini, unless I could find a great deal on a used or refurb. That's mostly because they are also getting old.

Thanks! Gonna go look at the Pros.

Since you're a CFI, go refurbished...

I was using a mini until my eyes demanded something larger.

I would heartily recommend a refurbished iPad Air 2. I got one on Amazon with cellular and 128GB for $300 and change. Works great.
