I was an Electronic Technician in the Navy for 11 years, so I know a bit about of what I’m about to speak. When it came wiring the various avionics, I recognized, early on, that it wasn’t going to be an easy haul in regard to wiring the instrument panel. What with all of the various inputs going to various connections. Not impossible, but time consuming at the very least.
Along came Approach Fast Stack Systems. They presented a system which allows for central coordination of all of your wiring for your avionics, and a cost effective way providing the interconnection cables necessary to “make things work”. Given my past experience, I immediately saw the value of the services they offer.
I just want to say, Tim Haas, (the General Manager), while being one of the most soft spoken of the vendors we see at the various fly-ins we attend, has been one of the most reliable and competent businesses I’ve come across. Every new thing I wanted to put in my panel has been a “cake walk”, mainly because of the cables they have provided me after I made my purchase of the “Hub”.
I would invite each and every one of you to visit their website, (http://www.approachfaststack.com/index.html ) , to evaluate their product. It has saved me NUMEROUS hours of “figure out” time, as well as “troubleshoot” time related to my mistakes. (Try watching an episode of “24” when wiring.... it doesn’t work.)
As some of you know, I’m “Queer for Quality”, and this company deserves your attention.
Best Regards,
