Any comments on the digital artificial horizons currently on the market
would be really welcome.


I installed a Dynon D10A. I perferred the MGL Enigma, but could fit it
in my panel. It includes GPS, moving map display, and other items that
are not available on the Dynon. You can also customize screens and
program numerous options.

Dynon has annouced a new model, the EFIS-D6. It is basically a D10A
stripped down to a glass 6 pack, with a price of $1,600. Here's a
link: http://www.dynonavionics.com/docs/ne...ouncement.html.

MGL is also releasing a new product, the XTreme EFIS. This is a new
small size unit that fits a 3.125 in hole. You can choose what
functions you want to start with and add addition functions later
using an SD card. Pricing hasn't been released yet and first shipping
is scheduled in the 4th quarter. Here's a link to MGL: http://www.mglavionics.co.za/.
Click the XTreme EFIS button on the left.

If you only want a artifical horixion with the other features, MGL
also has the AV-2. It also has a mag compass indicator built in. Click
on the Inifinity Singles button on the left and scroll down to the
AV-2 for details.
