Obviously it means more in crowded Europe than over here but the money tigers grown fiercely here. I took great pains to lambaste the North Weald area mandarins really because my squadron spent some time there during the Battle of Britain and I felt history reigned in that case. On Sandown perhaps there is less cause unless the Watson Watt's radar posts were maintained by use of Sandown. My nephew brought me back from Cranfield in his ultralight, to settle serenely onto the turf at Sandown. I was immediately warmed to think it very much mirrored the atmosphere at a myriad of "Mom 'n Pop" airfields so preferred in the States. An immaculate grass field, a few buildings, a warm handshake and a drop of fuel. These are the marks of a pleasant cross-country odyssey and Sandown is one of these. May it flourish rather than become another victim of faulty logic.

I know that several correspondents on net have mentioned the value of your attention to the list. Thank you. I suspected that Dynon might not have produced the ideal device and that there were many more for research, but must 'fess up' that I had already installed the EMS-D10A unit in attempting to overcome the nose-heavy result of 914 plus CS prop (Woodcomp). The assumption was that several pounds ahead of CoG could be saved by avoiding vacuum-driven dials and their hardware. For that reason I think I'll have to go with the D100 because; (a) there's a saving in weight from my homemade EFIS (mini-Mac); (b) they have fashioned an "exchange" link between the two (DSAB); (c) their wiring harness seemed a lot simpler than my alternative; (d) the space available won't accept the D10 but will the D100; (e) I can easily incorporate a cooling fan overhead; and (f) I can get the D100 from a nearby AS outlet (simplified tax/import duty). I was heartened to see you said that installation was relatively easy. I appreciate that these reasons may be less than 'engineering' logic, but unless there is outstanding clamour otherwise, will have to go with it. Again, much obliged.
