Dynon Avionics has announced prices for its new SkyView systems, with shipments scheduled to begin soon. The SkyView is a new generation glass panel, offering synthetic vision, fully redundant systems, bright screens, flexibility and the ability to upgrade in the future, the company says.A SkyView EFIS starts at as low as $3900 for a 7-inch display plus an ADAHRS module. Adding an Engine System module adds $600 for a total of $4500. Adding a second redundant ADAHRS module is $800. An Ultimate System, with dual 10-inch displays, redundant ADAHRS, engine monitor and backup battery is $9980. The SV-D700 (7-inch) display by itself is $2700; the SV-D1000 (10-inch) display alone is $3600. SkyView network cables, in lengths from 3 to 20 feet, are also available to facilitate wiring of the system.Our first EFIS products were based on the premise that we could make high-quality avionics available at prices all pilots could afford, said Dynon President John Torode. I am pleased that our team of engineers and developers can continue this tradition with a technologically advanced system that pilots will love to fly behind.For more information, visit the company’s web site.
