Class Description:
This class will introduce pilots to most ground and in-flight operational features of the Dynon Avionics SkyView system.  In-depth discussion of installation and initial configuration of the system is not an objective of this class, though some of those concepts will be addressed where relevant.  

An additional objective of this class is to educate pilots about the process of transitioning from analog instrumentation to glass panel systems in a small GA aircraft. Including the cognitive differences of analog and digital/electronic instrumentation, cockpit resource management, etc.   

Transportation:

Attendees are responsible for their own transportation to/from the event.  However, for anyone wishing to fly via GA to one of the area airports, upon request special arrangements may be made to assist with ground transportation.
