Philip,

When reviewing the Entegra EFIS, you were critical of its
reliablity. What software release are you on? Do you plan on going
to rel. 7 with WAAS? Have the later releases been more reliable?

Comments from others would also be welcome.

Thanks.

I guess we started with Avidyne Release 5 and upgraded to 6. Release 6 is definitely more reliable than R5. We will upgrade to R7 in September because currently we are precluded from doing GPS approaches (we upgraded our Garmin 430s to the WAAS version, which, we later discovered, were not compatible with Avidyne R6).
