Re: Getting rid of vacuum system venturis?
That does look interesting. I emailed them asking the 120/140 series to be included and in the STC list. I encourage everyone that reads this to also email the request. The more options for our planes the better!

Re: Getting rid of vacuum system venturis?
Looks like a great product! Would love to add it to my 120. Much cheaper than a Garmin G5, and the fact they are marketing the certified and experimental models at the same price point is awesome! I also have emailed asking them to include our type certificate in the AML.

Can you say Wow! The rate at which avionics in advancing is simply amazing. My dear ol Dad that started out with no brakes and a tail skid would be astounded by the progress today.

Re: Getting rid of vacuum system venturis?
Take it for what it is worth, I got a reply from Aerovision stating "we have all the mainstream Cessnas on the AML for evaluation". I'm sure they would want to have every possible airframe on the list, but we'll see what they consider "mainstream".

Very few pieces of equipment adorn the exterior of a Cessna 120 or 140 like a vacuum system venturi.

If 140 listed may assume 120 also listed. Power requirements listed. My 140 will have to keep vacuum horn due to all those round gauges. Would be nice to have a attitude indicator without the extra power requirement, weight and extra vacuum horn. Miss flying at night. Keep it light Keep it simple
We have the 140 on the STC list for evaluation. Power input is 12V, 1Amp.
