No other damage to instruments or avionics, so we don't know if this is a failure resulting from the accident. This unit is no longer manufactured, Terra being purchased by Trimble and then dumped. Trimble don't even answer tech messages! Any ideas of places for service support in the UK, please?

A very economical but up to the minute design comes from Micro Air, you will find them on a web site, they are about $1100.00, and will fit in a 21/2 instrument hole. I can't tell you that very large numbers have manufactured for "special purposes use", because if I told you that, I'de have to shoot you. Cheer, Bill Hamilton.

Jim Selby Hi Jim, What type of problem did you have with you MicroAir? Display, or other? (I assume it was the transponder, not the MicroAir 760 radio.) Jim Ayers ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 04:41:36 PM PST US From: W J R HAMILTON Subject: Re: Avionics-List: Microair (was: Terra TRT250D Transponder) --> Avionics-List message posted by: W J R HAMILTON All, I am interested in the MIcroAir problems, here we have found them to be very reliable, and FAA had an evaluation recently that resulted in a big contract for a modified (always on version) of the MicroAir transponder. They now have their prototypes of a ADS-B/Mode S version in test, this will be the unit of choice as ADS-B is rolled out in Australia starting '05. MicroAir is now a subsidiary of Jabiru Aircraft, I know Phil Ainsworth, the CEO well, have known him since he was an amateur builder, I can bring this to his attention directly.
