There aren't enough superlatives to describe my experience with Coastal Winds Avionics in the panel upgrade for my Glasair III. They provide a full service operation, which is perfect for experimental aircraft! From answering all my design questions, to competitive pricing, to custom coding and pushing the limits of what can be done with avionics today, and doing it all with the highest quality workmanship and professionalism...simply amazing! We spend a lot of thought and money on avionics and instrument panel design and fabrication in search of the "perfect" panel...Dallas takes any worry out of the process and delivers. When I have another avionics project, Dallas DeVilbiss and Coastal Winds will be my partner in the effort.
