Dear Jim, Brent, John,

Thank you for your mails. Meanwhile I flew down to
Caldwell where SFS is based and was greeted by gordon
with whom I had a 45 minute demo flight in their
cessna 210 EFIS 2000 equipped and got to play around
with it and push all the buttons! Amazing! Brent is
right by saying that if you can't afford it don't even
look at it. I walked into kirk's office at lancair
this morning to inform/confirm that we were going to
have it in our airplane.

Also Jim :
> December 15, 2000 -- Washington, D.C.  --- EPA
> Administrator Carol Browning announced today that...
since you can foresee the future, why not reassure me
of SFS's presence and good financial health in the
future ? ;-) no harm meant, just pulling your leg ! Do
pay a closer look at the SFS next time you come across
it I'm sure you will change your views. I'm curious to
know.

Brent, whatever can go wrong WILL go wrong on your
demo flight. We chuckled but were not a bit
disappointed by your demo. A little too short though,
because I discovered so much more on my flight with
gordon.
And yes, I hadn't thought about the icing factor
during the fly-in !

Some questions about the EFIS 2000:
1. Which autopilot interfaces well with the EFIS 2000
? Do they have their own ?
2. What flight info can you download onto your
computer as an excel file ? Is it only engine info
(EGT, CHT etc..) ? Or can you download you flight
levels, flight path, airspeeds, fuel flow, etc...
etc... etc... ? It would be really cool if you could
download all that and later analize performance etc...
such a nice way to keep a log.
3. What is the guarantee they offer with their systems
? What about updates ? How much will they cost ?
Brent I'm sure you have the answers for these
questions.

Thanks again list,
Regards, fili
