I don't think I would want a glass cockpit in a sport plane, but that is
just me. Just some good instruments and let's go fly. I guess a glass cockpit can add what ,about 10G to the cost? Just not worth it for a sport plane. I am sure there are some gizmo guys and gals out there that would love the glass, heck I may even like it myself if it did not cost so much. Liability is a major cost and concern with about anything these days..even selling coffee at Mickey D's! I guess that all goes to lawyers, insurance companies and people to dern stupid to walk across a floor without half killing themselves ![]() stop all the nonsense. We all know the risk of flying as well as the risk we take driving to the grocery store..things happen! Sure wish we all could just accept those things without having to blame everyone but ourselves. And yes there are alot of sport planes out there that do not look like a flying lawn chair!!! Thank goodness huh? ![]() Patrick student SPL aircraft structural mech wrote in message oups.com... I spent alot of time in the LSA mall last week, some of those glass cockpits are pretty cool. If you read the fine print, they may be an option on some and not standard. I didn't get literature on every one, just those I was interested in (ie-low wing). Ryan |
