Yep, they were there, in building A or B, can't remember. For a certified bird, that would be the ticket, but for experiementals, even with and old steam gauge panel, that screen size is a limiting factor.
Yep, that's what I mean. The instrument fits a 3 1/8" round hole and the display is a whole bunch smaller than that.
The other MFD's put the display outside the hole, so you can get a much larger display. I'd hate to try to use something like that when in the bumps... But that's just my opinion.
You can't be serious. The 1/2/3/496 uses a 3.75" (measured diagonally from corner to corner. That makes the display alone in the 1/2/3/496 2x the size of the AT300's display. It's 2.5" diagonally. If we were to do square area, the Garmin is probably 3 or 4x the size.
Remember the AT300 fits in a 3.125" round hole and then has a square screen that is smaller than the 3.125" hole, plus has to allow for a knob, etc.
I hate to disagree, but this display is less than 1/2 the size of the 396..
You're right, it is bigger, but once you are at that size, it doesn't seem to make much difference. It is a cool looking unit that fits right in the VSI cut out.
