I had two GPS failures in one flight today. I got a warning for a "GPS 1" failure (Skyview), and at another time I had the CDI disappear for about 5 seconds while it was using my Garmin GTN650 as a source. The system is two Skyview HDX screens. Attached is a diagnostic file.

We'll take a look at that. If you email our support at dynonavionics dot com before we get a chance to follow-up, put "case 280801" in the subject line.

I have replied via a support email with more info, but I am copying it here since the file was only sent as a link and I don't know if that workd for you.

Regarding my GPS failures mentioned in this case, I had the CDI go blank again today. This time was also with it using the Garmin 650 as a source (I almost always am using the 650 as my CDI source). It will be in the last few minutes of the end of this diagnostic file, while I was lining up for an RNAV approach.

You may see some other anomalies which you can ignore. The roll servo shear pin had broken as well! I will be requesting another shear pin on your website.

I've had the CDI (and all other nav info) drop out for a few seconds a time or two (or more) as well. There's another thread on this somewhere, wherein I suspect that it's an ARINC box problem (data sync or something like that). This is with a 430W.
