No arguement from me. It just seems that a fuel gauge is not as important as the attitude indicator yet the attitude indicator is not required. Though fuel is a major part of keeping you in the air as opposed to in the ground. Interesting, but I suppose logically the fuel itself is more important than the gauge, just as the pilot is more important than altitude indicator? I mean, if you know how much fuel you have, and how long it will keep you in the air, could you gauge it by time? Also if flying in good visiblity could you fly without an altitude indicator? Thanks Fuel is no doubt more important than the fuel gauge. Altitude indicator is a required instrument for VFR Day but the Attitude indicator is not. -- Mike Flyin'8 PP-ASEL Temecula, CA http://flying.4alexanders.com
