  Related question.
  
  My 320 currently has lots of electronic items – Sandel EHSI, Garmin 430’s,
  STEC autopilot (replaces the Turn Coordinator), and ONE vacuum instrument –
  the Attitude Indicator.
  
  I like the idea of one of these 2 ¼” AI’s – it would be an ADDITION to what
  I am already flying.  I fly lots of IFR, and my current backup is… the
  autopilot within the electric TC.
  
  Another AI would be a benefit, and I’d have lot’s of time to compare it to
  the primary (and TC) to check it’s functionality.  If my primary fails –
  it’s an EMERGENCY = LAND.
  
  Better than my current nothing?
