Yes. Search for the word "Pirep" in the Pilot's User Guide.

I sent another email this morning to the same person (Scott Hebert), with no response. Thankfully, it looks to be VFR from CA to Syracuse, NY from Friday to Sunday, so the charts will be less critical, but that's just me. I wrote: "It is now 24 hours since you sent this message. No notification...

I emailed them yesterday. They responded and said that they're running late but that the update would be available later yesterday, which obviously it wasn't. So they either lied or were mistaken, but in any case they're still there and hopefully will have the update later today. You can always...

Just so that I can calibrate, do I actually have to: Bail out of a burning airplane TELL you that I bailed out of a burning airplane Have my propeller come off and glide to a safe landing TELL you that my propeller came off and I glided to a safe landing Something else in order for me not to...

I assume you mean that you've got a System32 EFII from FlyEFII (that's what the pics look like on your web page). Per the FlyEFII System32 6-19 installation manual: Fuel Flow signal out – blue wire. This wire provides a signal that mimics a Floscan 232 or Red Cube type fuel flow sensor. You do...

Have you reviewed the Pilot User Guide regarding the "Level" button? Here's what it says: Level Mode The Autopilot’s Level Mode (or Straight and Level Mode) will immediately attempt to reach zero vertical speed and a roll angle of zero. It will not attempt to fly the aircraft to any previous...

No.

So this page: https://www.fdatasystems.com/gd-40-co-detector states that for the Dynon interface, you're using a switched input, NOT the serial line. The manual: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5282b286e4b01dd0edf58599/t/62ede5aea975c74e3587a2cc/1659757998614/GD_40_Manual.pdf then...

Nope. Screen failure, I'd bet. Had a D120 for 10 years or so - no matter what the alarms were doing, it never did THAT.

I agree with you that it would be nice for the elevation data in User Defined Waypoints to be useful for navigation, and I have no idea why Dynon doesn't (or can't, with a toggle maybe) use the elevation info for that purpose - an enhancement request, for sure. If there's some airport that's...

Sure sounds like an intermittent momentary power loss, like would occur when strands of wire are just barely touching the inside of a connector and there's some vibration.

My point was, with a $40 switch and a couple of ethernet cables, the OP can have what he wants. Seems simple enough.

So I don't know crap about having a 3rd display - I only have two. But you already know what you need to do for the SV-NET and for all the data lines (splice the third into the other two). For the Ethernet, see page 2-32 of rev. AT of the installation manual - it says: Dynon Avionics strongly...

Where's @SV_Classic when you need them?

Which, if one reads the manual, one would learn without having to ask someone else to do the work for them. People do NOT mind answering questions. What they mind is being asked to do work for folks that aren't willing to put in a modicum of effort themselves. Now, if the question was "I...

No. Maintaining zero vertical speed (the derivative of altitude) is not the same thing as maintaining a specific altitude. Hit a vertical gust (even a very weak one), and you may rise or sink some. The A/P will still, wherever you end up from the vertical gust, attempt to maintain zero VS, but...

I won't say "RTFM", because some folks get touchy about being asked to read the documentation for the complicated equipment they're using (see previous invocations of "Read the Manual" responses in many other threads), but from the Skyview Pilot's User Guide, Revision P, Chapter 8, Page 8-1, it...

The data is very thin, but we actually have data showing the opposite: https://generalaviationnews.com/2025/02/07/taildraggers-and-turmoil/#:~:text=General%20aviation%20has%20long%20faced,down%20accidents%20involved%20tailwheel%20airplanes. not surprisingly, aircraft that are harder to control...

Do you have an data to back that up? The 2022 McSpadden (nee, Nall) report here (last year for which non-preliminary data is available)...

And yet, accident rates, both fatal and non-fatal, have been trending down for many years and continue to do so, even in the face of these claims that "the old days were better". GA accident statistics/facts do not support this claim. I agree with you 100% that all the things you mention are...
