Once there is a trustee to oversee liquidation there is no more "they & their" to handle customer issues. Expect that you are on your own when it's time for service. On the up-side if you have not had problems I the past with those devices it is likely they will continue to work for some time.

Or was it hiding behind a heavy rain forecast.

I never heard any warnings. It just got real dark and then the rain. I took shelter from the rain inside one of the four hangars. They closed the doors as the wind picked up. With the noise from the rain on the metal roof, we did not notice the extra heavy wind. Garmin had to pickup some of there units as the roof was leaking. On Wed. and Thursday I counted two RV-10 in HB and two more in HBC. We made it as far as Hilton Head, SC with our RV-10 and rented a car to make it to Sun n Fun. Just over seven hrs from Hilton Head to Nova Scotia and got home at noon today.

The movement is non linear because of the hinge. It is great for indicating flaps up or down but not partial flaps. Also if the POS overextends it breaks and you will get no reading so be careful how far you let it extend.

We have one for sale. Just purchased last summer , AC has 75 hrs. I think we are only replacing one at this time for a 20 with Blue Tooth. This set has the lemo plug. We will have to purchase the new set to get you the ac side of the plug. As others, we are asking $500.

Seems to work well there away from moisture. I get almost no reading on the first 3 degrees of flaps, but works well after that with the flap positioning system. I would add caution as was mentioned before - DO NOT LET THE SHAFT HYPER-EXTEND. I did and the replacement is $40. -------- See you OSH '11 Q/B - flying 1 yr+ Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=336012#336012 ________________________________ Message 13 ____________________________________ Time: 08:19:13 PM PST US Subject: RV10-List: Re: Burt Rutan Retires From Scaled Composites From: "AirMike" I know that Burt Rutan has had some serious health problems in the past 2 year.
