Just a heads up for AFS 4500 users.

We have just recently installed a 4500 in addition to the 3500 and have discovered a potential in flight surprise.  While dialing in the airport identifier for Georgetown Ky (27K) the 4500 will reboot while entering the airport identifier at the MAP / Direct to menu of the 4500.  It reboots on the third letter.  I am not sure if any other airport identifiers are triggers for the reboot. 

If you enter the airport identifier at the 430W or on the 3500 there are no issues.  Since we are using the 430W for the approaches anyway, there is a work around.

I talked to AFS about the problem and they said it was a known problem.  They currently don't have a planned software release to fix it.  This problem exists using the latests firmware and map data release. 

I found this while on the ground.  I was glad I was not airborne. 

Thanks, Jim Combs
