I think you'll find FAR 91 a little less specific than the 202v3 and 217. Good luck in the build.

Stock engine.
Brad, I'm running an Aerosport IO-540 that Van recommends..260 HP, TAS around 175 knots at 75%/7500'/15 GPH.
Best,

Uhhh...is the GPS that's built into say Dynon's Skyview "suitable"?

You can refer to the AIM, GPS (para 1-1-19) and tables 1-1-5 & 1-1-6 to help determine what the Dynon is suitable for. Also refer to AC 20-138. I suspect the Dynon is a VFR panel mount.

My -10 is IFR capable with two Dynon screens...an EFIS and an engine monitor. The EFIS is set up so that my "Home" screen at boot-up is split with an HSI on the right, where my nav/approach info is displayed.
I also have an SL-30 for localizer and glideslope approaches and a 430W for precision RNAV/LPV approaches and file as /U.
If you're ever in my vicinity, you can fly my -10 left seat and we'll go 25 miles and shoot a few LPV apps.
Notice the winds aloft from 201 degrees at 18 MPH...it's calculated for you continuously between the GPS info from the 430 "speaking" to the D-100...amazing...even the crosswind component shows and if you study the HSI, you can see the wind correction angle!
Best,

Why not /G?

If we're picking nits here... (my own emphasis added)
"(a) General. Except as provided in paragraphs (c)(3) and (e) of this section, no person may operate a powered civil aircraft with a standard category U.S. airworthiness certificate in any operation described in paragraphs (b) through (f) of this section unless that aircraft contains the instruments and equipment specified in those paragraphs (or FAA-approved equivalents) for that type of operation, and those instruments and items of equipment are in operable condition."
Wouldn't this seem to indicate that this section does not apply to experimentals?

Operating limitations for experimental amateur-built aircraft specify that 91.205 does indeed apply for night and/or IFR operations.

Well there we go. Since I haven't actually seen a set of operating limitations for an EAB aircraft, I was unaware of this. Thanks Mel!
