I'm pretty sure I'd still look at the regular ASI rather than tape as the scan is drilled into me. Only private use, so no worry about instructor seeing anything (except maybe IR(R) renewal time). At present I still have back-up in that the 496 has an instrument panel page, so might give them a little longer, before breaking the bank. More comments and advice gratefully received!
Its basically why we have gone that route as well. Of course its a slippery slope as when you do one you have to keep going!!! We have done 6 so far from the "steam" fleet.
