Seeing as I am a big nerd when it comes to new avionics, I thought I'd get some opinions on this system. It is very similar to the Chelton Flight System's PFD/ EFIS (a $50K system, ouch!) but for ~4,000$.
It is for experimental aircraft only, but word is that several certified a/c are operating with them, having their FSDO list it as an "entertainment device" with the 6 pack steam gauges in place.
The highway in the sky, terrain mapping (in 3D mode), and other features make this look very interesting. Obviously flying IFR would not be solely dependent upon it, but it would be helpful as another resource in my opinion.
Anyway, check it out- I am thinking of flying up to TN to see it first hand. Who wants to split fuel?
