Got a source of statistics to back them up? Join COPA and search the archive for the incidence of vacuum failures, HSI failures, and turn coordinator failures. One plane had 7 vacuum pumps fail, another had 5 HSI's. That suggest to me that the problem is with the plane (design or construction) rather than the instrument. (I had 7 autopilots fail before the fault was found in the Cirrus trim motor.) |
