Way to go! All I can say is enjoy every minute. My daughter is now 11 and that time from birth to now put the accelerator to the floor and it stayed there (guess I should have said throttle to the firewall). So make the best of it and enjoy every minute. I took my daughter up for her first flight in the 6A @ 9 months old - made her a special head set, gave her a bottle, and off we went. Exciting log book entry to look back on. Today we do "Whoop de doos" and the rest, and she absolutely loves flying.

The D100-D180 products will probably not offer that option either because of the complexity of the interface with VP as well as the desire for Dynon to encourage people into the SkyView system. I don't see any reason why a single small-screen SkyView couldn't be a backup and also the VP interface, although I assume the sharing of Engine Data would be a big part of the SkyView-VP interface, so you would need to have the SkyView be your engine monitor, probably. > > do not archive > > Jesse Saint > Saint Aviation, Inc. > jesse@saintaviation.com > Cell: 352-427-0285 > Fax: 815-377-3694 > > On Mar 23, 2010, at 12:30 PM, Perry, Phil wrote: > >> >> I'd like to see it attach to the lower-end Dynon's. >> >> I'd like to have the D-6 for a backup instrumentation.

This controller was designed to allow the user to adjust the amount of airflow into the overhead consoles that many RV-10 builders are installing. This is really nice when tempatures get below 50 degrees and that cold air is all enclosed, and the overhead is getting pressurized and leaking cold air into the cabin. With this control valve you can totally shut off all air or adjust to wide open all year long. We designed the electronic control unit to accept 12 to 24 volts and it has user end point adjustments, throw reversal and you can reduce the speed in which the valves open and close. The controller installs easily in the instrument panel. It fits 2" scat tubing. We will also have a single valve controller available as well. These valves can be used in many different applications were valve shut offs are needed. It is very easy to install and comes with everything you will need. Cost has not yet been determined but should be available within 30 days.
