Folks,
Thinking back to the conversation last year on stall+spins and the recent
article
in GASCO Flight Safety about cheese (you have to read the article to
understand).
Some of you may be interested to know that I am now producing Mk2 SmartASS units
that not only provide the features of the MK1 units (talking ASI, and audible
speed director) but it also features an accelerometer that measures the G you
are pulling and factors that into the speed director calculation. It works very
well as an aid to preserving the "stall speed margin" as well as making flying
a stabilised approach ridiculously easy.
I must stress that the SmartASS is not a stall warning device.
The Mk2 units also feature audible undercarriage and general alerts.
As ever, technical blurb, prices, etc. can be found at www.smartavionics.com
Cheers,
Mark
