Most of it is just a glance; at altitude it's nice to know true airspeed. So
much faster and easier to find frequencies for tower, approach, and departure
control for flight following. Can fly right on the edge of B airspace, as
Seattle is my backyard whereas before I left a larger buffer. It's
I also agree and flew round gauges from 1982 to 2017. And if you really want,
the Dynon can be configured to show a round gauge 6-pack. It took me about 30
seconds to get used to a tape instead of round gauge, only a couple flights to
find everything on the glass panel in an instant. But then I

Just curious, what do you do different / change given that information?

Just fly and love it. But please spent more time outside the cockpit than
inside.

I agree (especially on less than familiar areas!) - but we should all be using
flight following for that too (shamefully, I do not - I will do better at this!)
Even slightly expired maps will get you to an airport that you can feel
comfortable landing at (frequency and general information availa
That is an awesome testimony of what these things do... being an old military
helicopter pilot I still fly low and circle the water towers and read the names
on the tower then climb and locate myself on the maps... dangerous in a plane

I fly a Dynon Skyview in Zenith CH-650. I was going to build a KR when this
opportunity came up and 3 others joined me to share costs and build. Built from
2015 to 2017, flew WA to OSH in 2017 and 2019. This was 2019 event. Highly
unlikely, but great to have Dynon and Nrst shows closest airports
Valid point. Reading the map will be your job Dr. Hsu. I fly, you navigate...
that should work.

I would still recommend to bring a sectional chart in the cockpit whenever

cannot rely on electronics completely for VFR navigation. Yes, you may well

Michael I took your picture and put it up next to mine and its really amazing
how these things have changed aviation. There is a sense of complacency in the

Wow I did not know they were so far behind... I have a source for more D100
and EMS 120 from a flight school that is upgrading their Piper Sports to

I'll post it so we can get first dibs on it...

On Monday,
Nice, I tried to order a skyview a couple weeks ago and talked to Dann at the
factory and he told me they don't expect to have the materials for skyview
until early 2023. So i am moving on to something else...
