Backup vacuum systems
Sporty's pilot shop has a nifty electric AI that can legally replace
your Turn Coordinator. That's the way I'd go if I hadn't already installed an STEC in there. The wet pump is another good alternative, though the gyros can still fail.

What is the story with replacing the TC with an electric AI?
I thought that had been generally prohibited in most/all a/c. There was an effort to change that but I didn't think anything had happened.

The Sporty's electric AI is STC'd for replacing the TC. Hal w/ Sporty's
worked on the approval for all of us so inclined to do so. They're on back-order, if that tells you how successful the product is. -- Thx, {|;-) Victor J.
