Then you would have 100% certified equipment and a lot less fear of electrical gremlins invading critical equipment. You would have a ton of information that the Dynon doesn't provide. The reality is that your panel already provides virtually failure proof airspeed and altimeter info. Now you can ditch the vacuum pump completely and feel darn good about your flying. Just my $0.02.
