I have a Dynon D-10a EFIS http://www.dynonavionics.com/efis-d10a.php
on the panel of my Stemme. It displays, among other things which are
configurable, Attitude (pitch and roll), Heading (3 digits, scrolling
tape, and trend indicator), Airspeed (3 digits, plus scrolling tape,
plus trend indicator), Altitude (3 digits, scrolling tape, and trend
indicator), Slip Ball (digital and it actually works, unlike a physical
ball in a tube), OAT, G-loading, Battery voltage, and AoA. The AoA
indication is a separate graphic which is fed by the pitot tube and an
extra static port located on the under side of the nose cone. Follow
the link above to see a picture. The AoA indication is just to the
right of the Airspeed (right side of the case).

Hold altitude constant for a while and watch the AoA increase from green
to yellow to red and feel the onset of airframe buffet. I've been
instrument rated for 43 years and this is the best instrument I've ever
used given everything needed is presented on one instrument face. Would
I buy one for a pure glider? No, but it came with the Stemme and it's
proven its worth

Tom,

Is the Artificial Horizon really an AoA Indicator? If you hold a true nose-on-the-horizon in a glider, it will slow down and begin a descent, which means the AoA is increasing, but the nose still shows a 0 degree reference to the horizon. I've been teaching and flying instruments for 22 years and even in a power plane the Artificial Horizon almost never shows the Angle of attack.
