Misled or not I cannot confirm or deny. The Washington FSDO FAA inspector
made it clear he would not sign off the airworthiness certificate if the
"backup" gauges were not installed and properly calibrated. I caused that
to happen and he did sign. I think that might be called the power of

There is no FAA requirement for backup gauges for VFR day or night
flight. There isn't even a
The Washington FSDO FAA Inspector that did my airworthiness inspection
required me to install a mechanical airspeed indicator and a mechanical
magnetic compass before the inspection. I had asked for day and night VFR
operations for the airworthiness inspection application. Night VFR is the

Larry,
All decisions have been made, the panel is designed, all components and
materials are on hand, and

be shut down? Broadcast an interfering signal? FARs don't require backup
instruments, and experimentals can use any form of the basic VFR instruments
they want.(airspeed, altimeter, oil pressure, RPM, fuel quantity

There used to be a prevailing attitude that if you were using a "glass panel",
you'd still need backup "steam" gauges for basic stuff like compass, airspeed,
and altimeter. I've done some research on this, and see no requirement
mandating the backups, so maybe it's just prudence. I have an
