I'm in the planning stage of my build, and right now I'm trying to make a list of the things I want in my RV. One of them is what I want in the panel. Now I have two routes I can go. I can go with the standard steam panel, with digital engine minitor and an IFR radio stack. Or I could replace the steam gauges with glass gauges. However, I'm not sure how to make a glass cockpit IFR legal. I've heard that you have to have an attitude, pitch, and altitude indicator back up for this to be legal. I don't know how I'm going to do this on the limited space of an RV-8A panel. So, I guess what I am asking is what's the best way to solve the problem of an IFR glass cockpit?
