I am a tad old fashioned. Besides, I have yet to see a glass display I
like.

I'm kinda liking the looks of the Blue Mountain EFIS Sport these days. I
think it can even support a slave display. Would be nice to spread out the
data and declutter the individual displays. A lot of the EFIS type products
out there just look too damned busy for my tastes. Gonna order the Blue
Mountain for a work project pretty soon. I'm using my current project at
work to evaluate stuff I'd eventually like to stick in an RV-8.

I think there is such software at Crossbow's site. I can imagine a PDA
as a back up device or temprary upgrade.

I haven't seen a PDA that I'd want in the cockpit, myself.

clip. Where do you put the AHRS?

They're not very big. You would probably build a small shelf and mount it
behind the firewall. You typically have to mount devices like that at a
structural node - right under the pilot's ass is often a good spot.
Otherwise, structural vibration will clutter up your data.

passenger. I don't know if it would be worth it.

I don't think I'd ever bother to mess around with such an expensive device,
especially when there are complete instrument packages for less.
