EMS
Makes me sad I'm still in construction phase. How do you like the D10 EMS? Does it have a large enough screen for you?

EMS-D10
Hi Paul,
The EMS works very well and has been reliable for 1200 hrs. As a VFR only guy, the little Dynons are plenty readable. I keep my eyes outside most of the time.
Every time I think about a panel upgrade, I think how many gallons of mogas that would buy, but the new stuff is really tempting.
If you have one, use it. It is a nice box and the Dynon guys are great to work with.

Beautiful pictures, Pete.
Yep, my old Dynon 120 and 100 are going into their 8th year of 100% trouble free performance.
Best,

Great pictures! It was a perfect night last night. Unfortunately the only flying I got in was remote control.
You would have gone right over my house if you had gone 5 miles further south at Hastings.
Were there a lot of hawks and eagles out? I'm always a little nervous about river running down low, as I always see bald eagles all over the place.
