Its about giving the most important person to your success imput on the equipment you will be using as well as buddy box compatbility. It sounds as though you have done that though. Also 'just' finding "someone" is not always the best plan, agine make sure you connect to your new mentor/trainer/instructor/future flying buddy before you buy anything. You will not regrete that decision.

I have heard of maxford but not that airplane. Not real common, do you have a link?
