Dynon is excited to introduce the newest member of the SkyView family. SkyView SE is made specifically for VFR aircraft and pilots who want the most intuitive flight and engine instruments on the market. They feature simple and clear displays, with almost no menus to navigate in flight. At the same time, SkyView SE retains modern, innovative Dynon EFIS capabilities like SkyView’s revolutionary COM radio interface and 2-axis autopilot with single-touch controls. Without mapping capabilities, even the 7” SkyView SE display has a large, easy-to- read Primary Flight Display, including pilot-selectable six-pack “steam gauges”. With its simplified feature set and installation, SkyView SE is the successor to Dynon’s legacy D100 series products. The 7” SV-D600 display is priced at $1850, with the 10” SV-D900 at $3100. A complete 7” SkyView SE system with primary flight instruments starts at $3305 including harnesses.
