As Sun ‘n Fun concludes, it comes home that the week has seen a lot of aviating, hangar flying, buying, selling and wishing. Even those for whom flying is a some-day dream, the allure of aviation holds sway. Here are some reminders of what the week was like.
In Case You Missed it

MGL Infinity Singles
MGL Avionics/Stratomaster has cut a nice swath through the EFIS and discrete-electronic-instrument world. The company’s ALT-1, from its Infinity Singles line, makes a good, low-cost backup altimeter with a surprising list of features. By Marc Cook.
Build it Better
Paul Dye has used his engineering discipline to jot down his thoughts on the many lessons learned as we gain experience as pilots and builders. His goal, and ours, is to leverage the tribal knowledge of longtime builders such as Dye to get you thinking about Experimental aircraft on a higher level. Not simply nuts and bolts, but larger concepts centering on safety and self-discipline. We hope you enjoy this series.
