Looks nice but...

The airspeed and altimeter are opposite from standard location.

Too many gauges!

It'll actually look a lot closer to this:

I like it, but would want the airspeed and altimeter switched as well.

Very similar to our AirCam, set up for hard IFR (I follow rivers)

Color

I am very surprised that no one has yet commented on the very lovely shade of pink/coral/whatever-it-is in DR's "panel-with-the-reversed-airspeed-altimeter"

I'm not a color guy, myself. More like black-and-white. And at this stage in my life, actually more gray.

Pete,

I was thinking the same thing!

Could 3DR (AKA friendship one) be painted "coral" a la Tink style?
