    Maybe I’m confused what they mean by coupled. No roll steering but will it “fly the needles”? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    It’s also over 25k installed I’d think and that’s before addressing the AI... The king is a 10k swap out and new warranty on the servos. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    It’s not great which is why I’m evaluating replacements and plan to ditch vacuum pumps. Having your AI rely that heavily on an easily jammed constellation of satellites isn’t a step forward imho. I don’t see why they can’t come up with a device that can be certified without that input, based on my knowledge of electronics and physics. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Perhaps but my king kfc150/ki256 combo won’t disconnect on an ILS because of GPS interference... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    All well and good but I find it disturbing that the devices attitude info standalone isn’t as good as a mechanical gyro, and thus requires this additional validation to work/be certified.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Doesn’t change the failure mode question. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The KI300 is available, in stock, approved and for sale. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Anyone knows if these concerns apply to the KI300/KFC230 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    It means now every ILS requires GPS, think about that... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    That’s another reason to wait. I suspect one day my fiki long body will either get a g5/gfc500, or a ki300/kfc230. Luckily the ki256/kfc150 are working well at the moment. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The problem is I won’t fly widespread low IFR in a single, so not many. That said, with 1000ft ceilings I’d still rather fly the LPV or any RNAV than any other kind of approach. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Maybe 75-100 a year. But for a living... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yes but he was flying in Florida. I’m asking if anyone knows the nature of the operation that conducted that flight. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    On the deceased pilot? Was it a commercial flight? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Appears to be a 1980 which should have a crossfeed shut off, I believe. http://www.kathrynsreport.com/2018/12/cessna-335-n79hp-fatal-accident.html Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    No again. All we know is that particular pilot didn’t succeed. We don’t know it wasn’t flyable. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Learn something new every day. That said by newest we mean since the late 70s Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    A 400 series Cessna has a crossfeed shut off. Engine fire is as follows: Fuel pumps off, tanks main, crossfeed shut off pull, then for engine in question, throttle close, then mixture cut off (at my company before prop), prop feather, cowl flap close, fuel off, fly the airplane.

    And that calls for abort on the runway straight ahead. Half or more is probably remaining depending on weight. It’s not a short runway if I recall. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    So, none of the above? Lots of engineers here too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Jose, do you have an A&P? Do you have your Multi? Or Commercial or ATP? Have you had an engine failure in a multi? Your compatriots here have / have had all of the above. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Again wrong Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
