Check WWW.segelflug.de classified. They are buying gliders with English
units and converting them to metric so they have foot/Kt. altimeter/airspeed
instruments for sale. Also check Ebay for altimeters.

A compass is not needed in an experimental if the minimum equipment list
doesn't show one. My Nimbus only requires an altimeter and airspeed.
Everything else is optional.

I just bought a PIK20-D and have to replace the instruments from
metric to English. If anyone has a good used altimeter for sale please
let me know. Also, is a compass required for experimental
registration?

Chris,
Also keep in mind that there is no REQUIREMENT to change to english
units. If you're going to fly your PIK exclusively, or nearly so, you
WILL get used to the metric speeds/heights, and instruments aren't
cheap (unlike me).
