Hello all!
I am acquiring a new to me Mustang II and looking to make it IFR and update the panel and am looking for thoughts, suggestions, or advice.
Currently installed on the panel: (see pictures)
-Dynon FlightDEK-D180
-Garmin 296
-Comm Radio
-Mode C transponder
-Steam Gauge Airspeed, Altimeter, Turn Gauge, VSI, RPM
I have ordered an HS34 for the D180 (essentially replaces the need for a CDI/HSI and allows VHF/GPS Nav to run through the D-180 screen)
My initial thought is to purchase and install:
-uAvionix echoUAT/GRT Safe-fly GPS Package to pair with Mode C transponder
-N16 VHF NAV Radio Package (Razor control head) with Bob Archer Wing antenna
-Garmin 175 GPS (replace 296)
Open to suggestions or thoughts relating to my current plan!!! I have talked to other owners who have very similar setups and they have gotten everything to work together and also have an autopilot installed that will fly ILS and LPV approaches down to mins with this same setup or very similar.
I believe this would be the simplest and most cost-effective way to become IFR with a little redundancy.
Thanks in advance
