All engine performance data can be displayed, and if a limit is exceeded, a warning will alert you of the problem. The warning system includes a voice in the background telling you that you forgot your gear, or that you're too fast or slow.

We got numerous voice warnings of traffic along the way when in range of a participating radar site, although Gauch swears his transponder once said, "Chocolate milk unavailable," instead of the intended, "traffic unavailable.

Standard electrical accessories include the starter, the electric fuel pump, the stall warning horn, the ammeter, and the annuaciator panel.
