Anybody read the "First Word" in this month's Aviation Consumer? They shed considerable light on Avidyne's new liability and indemnification tactics, literally requiring owners sign an agreement that includes one or both of the following:
-That owners never sue Avydine over product defect or liability
-That if the NTSB proves an owner to be at fault (probable cause) in an accident and Avidyne is party to suit, that the owner will pay for Avidyne's defense and/or assume liability.
1) Is this true?
2) Has anyone seen this elsewhere, from other manufacturers?
3) Would it ever hold up?
4) In light of this, anyone still considering IFD 540/440's when they hit the market?
