MY KIND OF GUY.....

While interviewing a Marine sniper, Katie Couric dolefully asked: "What do
you feel when you shoot a terrorist?" 

The Marine shrugged and replied: "Recoil"........

It is a lousy unit, and Greg "It worked fine when we shipped it, you 
messed up the installation" is impossible to deal with.  

Look at the Chelton (which I have no experience with) or the Grand 
Rapids Technology units (which I have installed and flown and test 
flown).  I presume the owners liked the unit because I have never heard 
from any of them.

  Anyone have experience with the Blue Mountain EFIS/Lite.  Thinking of 
replacing my RMI with one.

All,

Thanks for the advice.

Ron - one other question. What generation were you working with?

Per everyone's recommendations I looked at the websites for Dynon and
Chelton.

Chelton:  I used to work for the government but that, unfortunately for me,
doesn't make cost an independent variable on a personal level.  Looks like
good stuff but WAY out of my price range.

Dynon.  The main thing that I need is EHSI which the Dynon does not have so
that's out.

Which puts me back at Blue Mtn but of course, I don't want to pay for
garbage either.

The gent that Dennis suggested I talked likes his.  The only issue he has
had is with heading indication and believes that is caused by mounting of
the magnetometer to close to the inverters.

If anyone has anything else to add please jump in.  There doesn't seem to be
a clear answer here.

Again, thanks for the advice all.
