Approved instruments

CASA requires that even private VFR flight even in an experimental aircraft, requires the presence of

1 magnetic compass.

2. Altimeter.

3. Airspeed indicator.

A serviceable watch meets the timepiece requirement

Furthermore, each of these items is required to be of an approved type, generally TSO'd.

Similarly, if radio is required for airspace or landing area, it too must be of an approved type.

Is there an exception to this rule anywhere? I can't find one. Furthermore, if it is certified, how can it be installed by an unlicensed person?

That means that the new Dynon radio, and a host of other stuff is illegal to
Use here.

I'm starting to think about cutting my losses.
