Hello to all, Im very proud to join your group!

I floated that idea to the FIRST installation shop. They said no-go.

I even suggested using water...no go.

I even changed shops; just in case the first one was...."challenged."

The second shop (Owen Bell) specializes in SkyMasters, and they had the same problems.

I called and asked Aerospace Logic why the (heck) they would require such a calibration process...everyone I talked to pointed me to someone else....nobody had a solid answer.

I simultaniously installed one gauge to monitor my mains (75 ea) and a seperage gauge to monitor my tips (20 ea) ... I have 190 gallons total....182 usable.

I had "issues" with both gauges, and with their concept of "support".

Thats why I recommend not going down the path that has my foot prints.

The AE instrument is cool....but it's problematic and doesn't inspire confidence.

One of my MANY MANY MANY hard lessons learned in the process of doing massive upgrades to several planes: it never pays to be the first one to install something. Being the R&D guinea-pig is....frustrating and should be at the manufactureres expense, not the consumer. "certified" should mean virtually bug-free, not "It'll fit, we can work out the issues later."

I'm hopeful that JPI will have a MUCH better product.
