Hi gang,
I've been thinking long and hard about instruments lately and have decided that I'd like to include a Rocky Mountain Instruments microEncoder in my aircraft. If you're not familiar with this little device you can read all about it at their website, www.rkymtn.com. In a nutshell, it provides the following functions:
airspeed (kts, mph, IAS, TAS, alerts for flap, gear, stall speeds & more), altimeter (density, pressure, true altitudes, plus converge, hold & approach altitude alerts & more), VSI (range selectable from 1k - 6k fpm, digital and graphic display), OAT (deg C or F), and an encoder with the ability to display altitude being reported.
All this in a 3-1/8" instrument for under a grand ($879 for the kit, $1179 assembled). Sounds like a bargain to me. Anyway, it is my understanding that they will make a deal with any group willing to purchase 5 or more units at one time. I don't know how much discount they're offering, or whether they'll mix kits with assembled units, but I thought I would ask if there are any other folks out there in LML-land who would like to get in on a group purchase. Please contact me via private email if you'd like to participate in this and I'll take care of the rest. My email address is marvkaye@olsusa.com. Looking forward to hearing from you.
