What am I missing?
The EAA has the details on a system called Forward Vision, which it describes as an "affordable infrared technology for general aviation aircraft."
A blogger yesterday also called attention to it, saying, "WOW! Forward Vision is making this attainable for GA pilots."
This "affordable" unit goes for $15,000!!!
If that's the definition of affordable, I'm clearly running with the wrong crowd.
Give it a few years and you'll see units south of $1000. We just need to get the experimental crowd to start rolling their own.
ReplyDeleteI agree that $15K is not "cheap" (I couldn't afford it). Considering that 3 years ago, this unit was in the $300K area, it IS more affordable and a few GA pilots may be able to afford it now.
ReplyDeleteI agree with [the flying dutchman]that the price will continue south and become more affordable. Let me know when they get to $137.00 and I'm first in line!
