Colyn,

  He has the Dynon EFIS as backup. Do you not consider a second independent EFIS with it’s own ADAHRS as sufficient backup ?

  I am considering the same idea. Quite Glassy J

 

r.t.s.

 If you are going to fly this IMC then a good backup is a must.

 

 

right. computers break.  My near bulletproof garmin 530 had a display failure in September after 5 years.

Garmin couldn't fix it after 2 tries so they swapped me for a different one.

 

also, when computers break it's sudden and usually results in total loss of usefulness.

 

not having a mechanical backup would be a bad idea in any plane but for selfish reasons it would be nice if you didn't do this in a IVP.
