Since purchasing my 2004 DA40, I’m coming up on the first pitot static system check to keep the plane IFR certed. The local avionics shop quoted me $570. I know with the G1000 you have to check more systems than a standard six pack plane.
Wondering what some of you out there pay for your 24 month pitot static/altimeter check if you have a DA 40 WITH G1000.

Re: Pilot Static Check
In 2018 I paid $425 + a $45 travel Expense for the biannual IFR Cert for our 2004. It is lined up with the annual.

Re: Pilot Static Check
That’s exactly why I’m asking. The prices vary more than they should.
