Sorry, should have been clearer in stating my intentions - the AC currently
has an ASI, VSI, Alt and turn coordinator.
It has no AH or DI. I can either fit a vacuum kit and steam instruments -
lots of weight and old fashioned or, save up for ever and buy electric
instruments or put a Dynon in - light, modern and not essential to flight
safety so if it does go U/S, not a safety issue.
I'm hoping its not going to be an issue - just wanted to see what people
though and of course if anyone has actually got one flying on a permit AC in
the UK.
