A quote from Ralph Posey:
The time is fast approaching when even general aviation air data testers will be
digital readout and/or microprocessor-controlled. The cost difference between analog
instruments versus digital readout keeps getting closer. When it becomes cost effective,
everyone will have to convert to digital to stay competitive.
Air data testors with digital readouts and/or microprocessor controls will require less
expertise from the technicians performing the test and will eliminate interpolation errors
caused by misreading analog instruments.
AISS, Inc. is a member and or supporter of these organizations: AEA, AIA, AOPA, and
