I want to be clear from the get go, we did not buy an Advanced Flight Systems new ....in fact it simply came with the RV-6A that we recently purchased.
There was also nothing wrong with the AFS systems but there was lots wrong with the operator's.
Rob Hickman has answered many questions on email but when I suggested we'd fly down and actually use his demo equipment to learn what we needed to know he was extremely accommodating. He was waiting for us when we arrived and put his teachers hat on and before to long everything was making sense. He also updated our systems. Needless to say our trip back home was much more fun than the trip down as we started to apply our new knowledge base..
I want our readers to know that we have spent copious amounts of money over the years on everything aviation and never in that time has anyone risen to the level of Rob and his team at AFS. I can only imagine how well an actual new owner would be treated if our experience as a second hand owner is any indication.
We love the AFS 5600 EFIS and all the associated systems and want to pass on our highest recommendations to Rob and his team, they manufacture a wonderful product and back it up with world class service, it was a great experience dealing with them.
Cheers, Robert and Carla
