Looks great, just don't forget all that nice looking accessory "stuff" has to come out every year for inspection in the tunnel

Jeff
Yes it should fit. I just checked it in CAD. The other parts should be available
within the next month. We are making some tweaks on the design. If interested send us an email and we can put you on the list.

I'll bite/show my ignorance
Beautiful panel, Geoff. I'd expect no less from you
I'm unsure what an iPad would add to that fabulous glass suite up front, including the Dynon backup and GPS navigator. What functionality does the iPad provide that isn't already there in triplicate from AFS, Dynon, AviDyne?
IOW: why do I need you to take even more of my money
As a not-yet IFR pilot, I'm just seeking information I feel I should already know.
Fire away...

Thanks Bill
I mainly use the tray for my knee pad/note pad for clearance, route changes and fuel Managment. It's not meant for just a Tablet. I do carry a IPad with foreflight
And a stratus as a backup. I download movies or Netflix for my wife to watch that is blue toothed thru the audio system. Also the IPAD has all of my systems users guides, if for some reason I need to reference them.
Not sure how I am taking more of your money??? Buy Build fly want ever you want.
FYI Garmin GTN650 not Avidyne and G5 on the far left.

Hey, I know it's not done, but it is progress.
Aerosport dual 10 inch EFIS panel installed with trays supported and mounted for GTN and GTR units. Lots of nutplates installed and it always seem that the misc. bracketry needed takes longer than you think it should.
After I spend about 20 AMU with Stein it will look as sexy as the others.

No, but I thought I was. A truly beautiful panel!

Tablet holder.
Make that three. My father was my instructor and would scream into my right ear if I even took my hand off the throttle. That said, what a beautiful panel. No-one outside of the experimental community would believe this beautiful aircraft is an EAB.
