    Subject: Winter ASI or Not?????
    --> Europa-List message posted by: Graham Singleton <graham@gflight.f9.co.uk> At 23:56 12/08/2003 -0700, you wrote: Winter ASI or Not????? --> Europa-List message posted by: Tony Renshaw <tonyrenshaw@optusnet.com.au> Gidday, At first I didn't like the Winter 6443 ASI but it has grown on me as I now think of it as "Europa Specific". I am aware of what Europa say about this for speed management at low IAS, for example on takeoff, but I want to know what other users think of them please. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Reg Tony Renshaw Tony I would recommend the Dynon AI which has airspeed , altitude and AOA displayed as tapes. AOA is the right way to control airspeed. It tells you instantly if something has changed. Any ASI only tells you something changed 20 seconds ago. Graham ---

I have fitted the Dynon EFIS although it hasn't flown yet. It's a neat device at a good price, $2200 with Flush mounting Bracket and internal Lithium Battery that lasts 2 hrs + and gives independence in event of total electrical failure. It provides: AoA (extra $250) Attitude Indicator Compass/DI type display (can have remote Compass unit) VSI Voltmeter G - Meter Timer Clock Airspeed Barometric Pressure is now in millibars and has single button selection when Transition Altitude reached. Furthermore it's a Grey code Encoder for Transponder I've also downloaded 5 Checklists of my own selectable with a single key as required. ASI and Altimeter can be set with 'bugs' and Airspeed bands (Vne, Vso) etc can be set with colour code. It would be possible to use Dynon as primary VFR awareness device and move conventional ASI, VSI and Altimeter to RH side or add supplementary Panel on that side as standby instruments. The cost and weight saving is worth consideration. It weighs 1.5lbs. There are some great devices either available or imminent including a super unit from Grand Rapids Avionics although a little more expensive. Spoilt for choice mate!

    --> Europa-List message posted by: "Ami McFadyean" <ami@mcfadyean.freeserve.co.uk> I used a second-hand Winter rescued from a glider. Its brilliant! I can't find any measurable error anywhere in the Europa speed range. Static source is from the cockpit by the way.
