Garmin filled a void with its GI 275 EIS (Engine Instrument System) for vintage aircraft applications this week by adding select seven-cylinder radial engines to its AML-STC. The GI 275 EIS version is a standard 3-inch instrument (no cutting required) that serves as an all-in-one primary engine and fuel display. It displays electrical data, oil temperature and pressure, cylinder head temperature and exhaust gas temperature. It also has a manifold pressure and RPM display and a variety of other engine and electrical system parameters.
The GI 275 EIS for seven-cylinder engines is available now for select aircraft on Garmin’s AML, including those powered by the Continental W-670, Wright R-760, Jacobs R-755, and Jacobs R-915, including installations on Cessna 190 and 195, WACO YMF, the Beech Model 18 series and Howard DGA-15 series aircraft. Garmin said more applications are coming.
With a starting price of $5570, the GI 275 EIS can also stream engine data wirelessly to the Garmin Pilot app, then automatically uploads it to the flyGarmin.com website for storage. For more information, visit www.garmin.com.
