REFLECTOR: MGL oshkosh

[Scott Derrick]

I don't like the all in one units. 

1.) Too much info in one place.  Studies have been done that indicate
the human brain just tosses out info when overloaded like that.  It
looks incredibly cluttered.

2.) Loose a screen, loose it all.

I do like the Dynon, and have a EFIS and EMS.  I like their
interconnected bus which allows me to display either system on either
screen, so if I loose a screen I can still view the data of my choice.

I don't see if the MGL system has a built in backup battery like the
Dynon which will still function for a couple hours even with a total
electrical system failure.  A must in my opinion.
