    Pros

    Heavy duty construction, yet relatively light weight.
    Very good tool for "learning" level sight pictures.
    Performs as described.

    Cons

    Extremely small aperture hard to use with glasses.
    Need good overhead light to view leveling bubble.


    General Comments

    A very good instrument, yet, best used in strong light. A shaded or low light above unit makes it very hard to sight the leveling bubble.
    The very small sighting aperture makes it very hard to sight without a very steady hand and wearing glasses complicates its use.
    Otherwise a good tool for learning just what is "level", from your point of reference, at a distance. Need to know if that ridge ahead of you is above or below, works very well.

    If you feel you need it, then it'll work for you.

    Level bubble is very hard to see inside an airplane. Outside it is very clear but inside it is very hard to see.

    Works as stated. Very easy to tell if clouds off in the distance are higher or lower. I wear glasses for both near and far vision. I found it easier to use the gauge without my glasses.

    Cons

    None found.

    General Comments

    Great tool for VFR flight.

    Pros

    Has a hefty, sturdy feel to it. Rugged construction.

    Cons

    One of the decals peeled off the side after a few weeks in my flight bag. A little pricey. Harder to use in turbulence and low light conditions.

    General Comments

    This is actually a surveyors instrument being sold in a pilot supplies catalog. But it works as advertised. Has helped me decide earlier whether or not I need to climb/descend to avoid flying into clouds.
