Flightline 760 discontinued
What? Why? Dang! It’s a great, lightweight, affordable little radio with built in VoX intercom and I discovered today they’ve been discontinued. I bought one new five years ago for $750 from Spruce. I was at 1,000 agl yesterday chatting with another aircraft in the pattern of an airport 85 miles away. All I can say is I’m glad I bought mine when I did and I feel for anyone looking for one for their new build. They are perfect for a two-place experimental aircraft. Closest thing Spruce offers now is the Becker and it’s priced at $1,200.

The MGL remote unit with the head is the next best price at $995 and it also includes a two place intercom.

Hi Jim,
An ex Air Canada 767 Captain recommended 760 radio to me a couple weeks ago. Your note explains why I was not finding it. Purchased a Yaseu 850L handheld to get me through the mandatory 25 hour period here in Canada. The air park I fly from is Nordo, but the Fraser Valley is littered with towered airports including Vancouver International on the west end.
