osted by: "David Joyce" <davidjoyce@doctors.org.uk>=0A=0A=0AGraham, It isn'
t clear to me that a digital ASI would have the same delays as a mechanical
one, butin any case the beauty of the SmartASS is that it starts to warn y
ou that your speed is decaying way before you are anywhere mear falling out
of the sky, and effectively keeps you very close to whatever you have chos
en as your safe speed for that phase of flight. It is no more possible to i
gnore the escalating warnings, than it would be to ignore your wife had she
caught youin some serious sin of ommission or worse! Regards, David=0A=0AO

My preference would be proper AoA display with voice warning. Then you have
