Folks -
An earlier poster noted the Free Flight is supporting Trimble Avionics. That
is not 100% correct. All of the Terra/Trimble line of avionics except the GPS
products are now supported by TSTC Waco, in Waco, TX. I recently have had occasion
to do business with them and can heartily recommend them, both for cost
and quality of service. Troy Ellison is an excellent person to work with, and
will ensure that your radios are handled quickly, correctly, and efficiently.

Good Morning Sam,
Good Information! Glad to hear they have found good home.
I had heard that Southeast Avionics picked up the Terra line at the same
time that Free Flight was formed to handle the GPS line. Nice to hear they
have found a loving home. Did TSTC also get the radar altimeter or does
FreeFlight have that?
As I said before, we owners of the Trimble line of GPS units are very
fortunate to have such good service available from FreeFlight. Still getting
regular 28 day updates to the database from Jeppesen and FreeFlight is
supplying the packing software to Jeppesen for the database.
Very Happy Camper!
Happy Skies,
Old Bob

Thanks for the info, Sam
I still fly with a Terra radio which because of form factor would be a lot
of work to replace, nice to know there is an alternative to replacing it.

| Subject: | Z-19RB clarification |
I plan to use a slightly modified version of Z-19RB in my aircraft. It
appears to me that during an alternator failure you would want to deenergize
both the Main battery contactor and the Engine battery contactor, to
conserve battery power. In doing this there is no power available from the
engine battery to the endurance bus. The endurance bus alternate feed is
the only power feed path to this bus, with the contactors deenergized.
My question is, am I missing something, was this overlooked in the design
phase, or is there a specific reason for this design philosophy?
Thanks,
Roger

| Subject: | Z-19RB clarification |
Roger,
I am using Z-19RB in my Subaru H6 powered RV7. My understanding as to why
the endurance bus alternate feed is from the Main Battery only is that the
engine bus and its battery are reserved for the running of the engine alone
just as long as possible. I guess if you lose the main battery and thus the
endurance bus then you can still fly the airplane to a safe landing site as
long as the engine is running. Whereas, if you lose the engine battery/bus
the endurance bus is not going to do you any good as you glide to a landing.
I am sure Bob will chime in with a more elegant explanation.
