I'm seriously considering the Flightline ac system. Weight is not an issue for me.
My big concern is the future location of the magnetometer. Whatever avionics I use, this mounting will be critical. Just looking at the AFS site, the minimum recommended distance from any signicant metal mass is 24". Usual mounting point for the magnetometer and the a/c evaporator are both in the forward part of the tailcone.

I spoke to one installer that advised putting the magnetometer in the overhead console.

Is my concern valid?
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,

Are those considering AC planning on the engine driven or all
electric? 14 or 28V systems?
