Folks I just picked up the plane this evening from Advanced Aviation in Lancaster PA.
Joel Glover and his team did an outstanding job installing the new CIES
digital fuel sensors despite a steep learning curve on this first ever
install.
The next one (an SR 20 was already in the shop) should go a lot faster as the first is always the hardest.
I had a chance to run the system through its paces on the short hop from
KNLS to KMMU this evening. I must say my first impression is WOW ! A
huge improvement.
I love having the fuel flow quantity on the MFD now, but the icing on
the cake is the redundancy with the new digital fuel guage that replaces
the former analog version.
Really cool looking, but more important is the functionality. I really
like how you can flip between fuel quantity and the fuel burn graph,
really helpful for fuel balance. The CIES team even made sure it dims
with the instrument dimmer.
I will get some more time this weekend (during the daylight) to run it through its paces, but I would HIGHLY recommend this a must have upgrade to your Cirrus.
