So anybody else have this experience?? I know with any thermal element device they may not live forever and when turned on and off a fair bit they have only so many cycles. Mine was clearly an early failure. It had not failed completely but was very unstable.
Bushy, I see your point clearly hence my comment, the typical Bendix/king Transponder has no PA readout, mine does and its a handy reference if your EFIS and normal altimeter fail at the same time
because you can display the PA at 1013 or select the display to actual altitude by entering known QNH.
