Something that I appreciate with steam gauges is being able to see all of my engine instruments at a glance. I don't have to push a button or screen to check them. Are pilots just in the habit of regularly tapping over to it?

I've looked at Tigers in the used market, but the panels are so outdated the few that are for sale aren't worth getting excited about. I'm surprised Garmin didn't put some in new baffles and spuce up the engine compartment.

If it’s a used Piper I guess you’d want a new plane so the wings don’t fall off lol. Otherwise this is an awesome modernization kit for legacy airframes that aren’t prone to inflight break ups

I don't understand this kind of thing either... it's like $91000 worth of screens that basically do what a $300 iPad mini does with foreflight, stuffed (very handsomely) in a $45000 airframe. I don't understand this industry, this hobby... we need to say enough is enough.
@kirtflesher160326 күн бұрын
I agree, with an iPad and foreflight, why pay the big bucks. If the experimental crowd can keep their costs under control, “certified” GA aircraft will die off, as they should. They just cost too much.

@@manofspokane4340 I used to read/hear about the labour cost is typically 1x the cost of the equipment. This isn't that far off; mine was 85% the cost of my Garmin setup. People are looking at a lot of cash. But there is a market. Check out AeroVonics and their upcoming AV-30.

Nice panel upgrade, too bad it makes no sense to upgrade a tiger to this degree. The price for just the avionics is $38.4k not including tax. Now add to that the cost of metal fab to add the new avionics, plus removal of the vacuum system, and then the 1x cost of labor, you are looking at about the cost of purchasing a tiger at $60k!
