Re: [GMCnet] Sure got this way off topic. Stock gauges. How to calibrate. As you just don't really know the real temp, or oil pressure numbers. [message #329121 is a reply to message #329110] |

Years of monitoring Aircraft Flight Engineer panels has made scanning guages second nature. Once you have confidence that your cruise indications are in the normal range (Bob's idea to verify gauge accuracy is a good one) you just have to notice the deltas fast enough to avert damage. If you have the stock guages the digi panel is a great way to let the coach tell you a parameter is out off limits. It also helps if your significant other drives, and is maybe less diligent about guage monitoring. That said, I prefer a full set of quality gauges so I can monitor exactly what is going on.
