Yesterday and today were the first flight tests for IGlide on the
iPad mini 4. And wow is it fantastic!
How good is the iPad mini 4 display in the cockpit, compared to the
iPhone 6 (for example)? I have an older iPad mini, and it's usable but
marginal, but my iPhone 6 is very good. For my Phoenix, however, the
iPad mini size fits easily and would be a better choice - if the display
on the mini 4 is better than my old mini.

I have an iPad Mini 4 in my Phoenix. It is totally readable. I have been using the free version of the FltPan Go app to give me a moving map sectional display. A great redundancy for the Dynon Skyview system, particularly if you are flying around Class B airspace, where you need to see a bigger picture than what you can easily see on the 7" Dynon display.
