Your answer is helpful, but I find that I may have implied the wrong question. I would like to rephrase. What have been experiences of users of the Honeywell 26PCAFA6D pressure sensor for the measurement of fuel head? System implementation not at issue - instrumentation amp and 10 bits fine. Cheers, Jan de Jong. >Jan, > >I have one and it works well. The software allows you to calibrate it with >a laptop and once I set it up I have not needed to revisit it in one year of >operation. I currently have the static side of the pressure sensor >connected to the tank vent, which is not as per Tony's design. I find that >when I descend the fuel gauge reads low.

Low overcast, drizzle, and damp. Temps about 60'F. Tomorrow it's supposed to be sunny and warm, but Sat & Sun are iffy, with rain possible. But still a good turnout. Willie Coyote has already arrived. I'll tell you, Cliff sure knows how to make some nice fairing and smooth close control surface transitions. Just an FYI. John Hurst is here. He now is a sales rep for Liberty aircraft. Hope to get to talk with him tomorrow. Lockwood Aviation is here. It'll be nice to pick there brains about the Rotax issues that have been going about lately. Also, Dynon now has a larger version of the EFSD10. They are introducing the EFSD100 at the show. It's 7" X 5" X 4" deep. They also plan on the engine monitor to grow to the same size by the end of this year. The price only went up $200. And it includes the remote compass that usually goes for $100. Mike Duane Redding, California A207 XS Conventional Gear
