Hi John,

I've got a full panel with all the steam gauges, so rather than spend the
big bucks for the latest glass panel, I'm thinking that my iPad 2 G3 will
give me something almost as good for a lot less money.  I've got an empty
spot on the right side of my panel, so I attached a suction type Ram swivel
mount. It puts the iPad into excellent view.

I'm looking at the unit from Levil technologies. If you spring for the the
$1,000 AW  model, it gives you everything in the basic six pack instrument
cluster plus the synthetic vision package if you buy the $99 subscription
from Wing X.

Here's the link for the Levil AHRS:

Have fun,

Dennis
