Airspeed Indicator

I am looking for comments on the Bob Fiorenze Air Speed Indicator. Have you used one? What is your experience with this device?

Does anyone have a used one for sale?

RE: Airspeed Indicator

Yeah, I used one in my first Avonds F-16. It worked flawlessly. I set it up to "beep" at 200 and about 10mph above my landing speed. I would recommend you get the one with the earpiece. It's hard to hear with everyone flying.

RE: Airspeed Indicator

Tom,
Thanks for the reply. I get the impression you don't use it any more, if so why?

RE: Airspeed Indicator

I got the famous "wing off Master Caution light" illuminated...the crash happened just a few seconds afterwards. The plane was doing 167mph when the wing came off and about 120 when it hit the ground. OUCH!
