Hi all,

Does anyone have (preferably) first-hand knowledge or experience with
an EFIS eGYRO-2 Electronic Horizon? It looks like an ideal
replacement for my aging T&S.

Geoff,

I have a line of electronic Gyros MGL Avionics
http://www.craggyaero.com/mgl_avionics.htm

I have flown with the Horizon and compass and it does work well, but
like all others with this technology are not TSO.

In my opinion they are much better that the Tru-Track that only gives
a light when pitch or bank is over +/_ 30 deg.

Richard,

Is the MGL such that you could leave it off for an entire flight, but
turn it on if you suddenly became concerned that you might need it? If
so, how much time does it take to "come up".

Thanks,

Gary
