I am installing one of my plane, and as is the case with EVERY EFIS/PDF/MFD, I have, as required/requested, appropriate back up instruments in case the Dynon should fail. In reality, I could take the Dynon out of my panel and still be IFR legal. 2 - I also had similar concerns as expressed by Richard and also found the quote from Dynon's own web page. With a little leg work, I was able to speak with the VP of Marketing/Engineering and the President at Dynon. They indicated to me that the Web page was over 10 years old and that this was the same unit that had just left the State of Nevada and gone into space. Although not certified, the unit that is referred to in the frequently asked questions page of the Dynon web site, to my understanding, has been upgraded many times. This is again not to say that I would install any electronic display without a backup. Craig Blitzer cblitzer@triad.rr.com
