Default Stein came through



I received this teaser photo from Doyle at Stein. My goal was no switches on the panel. All my switches (except master caution test) are on the custom side consoles. The consoles are the handiwork of master builder and Oshkosh award winning builder Jim Gray. I'm gunna have to go to school on this!

the master caution light are (left to right):
Oil Press
CO detected
P-mag switch in test position
Fuel boost pump
Aux fuel transfer
Smoke System Armed

Dual ADAHARS
Dual magnetometer's
Dual backup battery
GTN 650
PAR 100EX
GDL 39
GTX 23 ES transponder

If I was only this close. I just bent my aileron skins an hour ago. The panel looks amazing, I bet you are itching to get that clecoed in and powered up.

please tell us about your annunciator panel. I think it looks very sharp. Did Stein make that for you too?

I supplied the backing plate and lights. Stein now carries the lights in his inventory (I think) The backing plate matches the side switch engraved panels. Doyle Stole at Stein built the annunciator panel and was a pleasure to work with. It took 11 diodes because I wanted a test circuit and some systems supply ground, some power and some both (P-mag test)

Given today's options, it's hard to beat that panel. I am years away from that stage but if I were choosing now it would be very similar. Very nice!

Go ahead and tell us the cost!
