GPS2 antenna on G2

post was split from click herethis thread

Does anyone know if the mounting method od the GPS #2 antenna has been changed on the G2. I think they got rid of the double sided tape on the body. How about Velcro? Mike?

Paul,

I don’t know. I’ve only ever seen the mounting on ‘G1’ airplane, and all those that I’ve seen were in fact Velcro.

FWIW… The glue of that Velcro let go one hot day in my SR20 – I put it back with contact adhesive, and it remained trouble free after that.

FWIW, I get intermittent GPS 2 errors on my antique SR22, and my GPS2 antenna has always been firmly attached to the velcro.
