IFD540 draft manual AVAILABLE

[Orest @ CYFD]

For anyone following Avidyne's long awaited IFD540 GPS/Com, the draft manual is now posted. It has always been Avidyne's position that you won't see a manual or simulator software until shortly before release, so this is very exciting news.

Steve Jacobson is the VP for development. I had a great little visit with him the week prior, had a look at the Avidyne Labs in the Boston area, and a good look at their EXP C182, where they do all their in-flight testing.

I've just posted a draft of the IFD540 Pilot Guide at:

http://www.avidyne.com/support/downloads/ifd-series.asp


I had some formatting challenges when converting it to pdf that I'll clean up in the near future. Some pagination got screwed up (you'll see I highlighted some of those page number errors in yellow) and I see some page rippling happened in Section 6. The Index is also incomplete from a page numbering perspective.

When I posted draft versions of the Transponder and Audio Panel pilot guides, I received a lot of terrific feedback on ways to improve those docs that I incorporated so I'm hoping for the same here.

I view the content of this doc as 100% complete so have at it....
