I think maybe you are referring to radios (including GPS's) that are "TSO'ed" as is required in most certified aircraft. TSO is not a requirement for use in an EAB aircraft. Also according to a recent FAA advisory letter, it does not look like TSO certified equipment is even required for ADS-B out or for navigation under IFR conditions in an EAB aircraft. But of course your local FSDO and you may have other ideas.

Cool
panel. I knew you got the 2 Dynon EFIS recently and since
they're not IFR rated thought you were VFR
equipped.

Al; My airplane is full IFR with triple
redundant flight instruments, dual redundant certified IFR
navigation equipment, two additional non certified
navigation sources and heated pitot tube. My navigation
sources are connected to my autopilot and altitude hold
module so it can do an approach if needed. You can see the
instruments on the attached photo taken while doing
an approach (DME Arc to Rwy15 at MSSS) in actual IMC
conditions back in 2014.

into Havana Cuba.
I had the privilege of receiving permission from the
Cuban Civil Aviation
Authority to land my KIS Cruiser EAB (N819PR) in to Havana
which I did on
December 4, 2015 thus being, as far as I can tell, the 1st
US registered EAB to
land in Cuba. As far as I can tell the 1st EAB to arrive in
Cuba was a Canadian
registered Seawind flown by either Vincent Rossi or
Dimitrios Mamais who landed
in to Havana sometime between 1996 and 1999.
I will get around to doing a write up of the whole trip
but I have to
figure out my notes first. In the mean time here is a link
to a photobucket
album showing how bad the weather was when we arrived. We
didn't have any
lightning just torrential rain and a bumpy ride. We saw the
runway lights at
about 1,200ft and finally broke out about 800ft.
