OAT Display in C or F  

28 members have voted

  1. 1. If you have an engine monitor or glass (G5/Aspen/G1000/etc) that can display OAT is it set to Celsius or Fahrenheit?

    • Celsius
      17
    • Fahrenheit
      11

Mooney was smart enough to use both C & F as appropriate.  The OEM gauges use C for OAT (note the yellow band for the possible icing caution) and F for engine parameters to match the POH. My JPI came set up the same way. You can change it but I think Mooney got it right.

I'm in the both category.   JPI is in F and G5s shows C.

I switched my G5 to C° before our flight today and left the JPI in F°, I think I like having both. We'll see.

Add that to the list...

1) ROP / LOP...

2) Flaps / no flaps...

3) °C / °F / °K / °R....   (Way to go Eric! :) I was still thinking about Kelvin, when I got to your post...)

 

Quick question... (s)

Did I learn Centigrade... because I lived in the US?

Was Celsius too hard to pronounce?

 

Going 0 - 100 takes too long when measured in mph... nmph takes even longer...

Best regards,

4) North Up/Track Up.  :D
