Nothing wrong with using the venturi vac system unless you get into ice. BH


Not that I plan on getting anywhere near ice. :-) And since the departure
procedure for my home field specifies a visual climb to 800 feet, the gyros
would have time to spin up anyway. Mind you, if I want to put in that
Garmin 430W, I might barely feel the extra cost of a G5 or two...
