 |
|
Dear Listers,
I'm working with the local FSDO this week and had my airframe inspection on Monday will get my sign-off this Friday if all goes well. Looking over the requirements for IFR, it appears that I've got everything I need as far as equipment is concerned. I have a Garmin SL-30 for Com/Nav and a Garmin GTX-327 for Mode C transponder. All of the other equipment and functionality is provided by the GRT Horizon HX sytems including the encoder, attitude, airspeed, altitude, compass, etc, etc. I do not have any steam gauges or other flight instruments other than what is provided by GRT through an HX installation.
My question is can my RV-8 be approved for IFR flight with this compliment of GRT HX specific instrumentation? Or, would I need to have a TSO'd encoder and/or other TSO'd pieces such as rate-of-turn, slip, sensitive altimeter, artificial horizon, direction gyro, etc?
