Agreed, I have a mute switch for the sky demon & pilot aware audio when
it all becomes too much.
Somehow the aoa beeping is easier to assimilate for me than smart ass
voice which seems to be nagging!

original AOA probe, which I think he fabricated himself by slipping a
slightly wider aluminium pipe over the original probe, and chamfering
the front end to match the angle required for an AOA probe. I fitted
this to the inspection panel on the starboard wing, after replacing the
acrylic cover with a metal cover, and used this for my Dyson Skyview AOA
gauge, and it works well. Fortunately, I had some unnecessary wiring
running through the wing which I used to feed through the necessary
tubing. I have attached a couple of photos.

audio prompting from this great, and would thoroughly recommend it, to
augment the AOA function.
