Hello LML’rs,

 

I am flying off the last few hours of my Phase I program on my IVP and this weekend I was about one hour into a flight when the Cheltons produced the RED X of death on the PFD screen.  Of course Bitchin’ Betty put in her $.02 as well and she has been reminding me ever since.  Have tried rebooting and turning off/on EAU, AHRS etc to no avail for about five hours of flight time now. 

 

Have Crossbow 500.  Anyone have suggestions for troubleshooting and correcting? 

When I was doing  ground runs last year and taxiing around etc, I would notice frequent but apparently random incidences of this failure as well as GPS failures, shut down and rebooting of one or both of the IDU’s and so on, but since we’ve been flying, I had not seen this type of anomaly occur.

 

Regards,
