Hi Again

Yesterday I spent some time considering what will go where behind my panel. As I plan to install dual AFS 4500 EFIS screens, I am *hoping* that the cut-outs will provide adequate access through the panel rather than having to work below the panel.

There is a lot of useful space behind the sub panel but getting at it will be a monumental pain once the a/c is completed. It seems like the only access will be from below with a couple of rudder pedal tubs in the way to complicate matters.

I was wondering what other ingenious ways others have making use of this space without having to expand their 4 letter work vocabulary.

Inquiring minds need to know …..

This is what I did.

Lots of aluminum angle allows full access. So much so that I still have not purchased any avionics. I'm leaning towards the AFS but I can pretty much accomodate anything now. I'm still trying to decide it the 4500 is worth an additional $1500 for an additional knob and faster CPU. Making it front mounting has increased the benzel and mounting hole size while the screen size is the same ast the 3500.

Hi William

Thanks for then photos - there are certainly some interesting ideas there. I
have shamelessly used the wing crib design on your website (I built it
yesterday). I just may "borrow" your panel access design as well.

As a first time builder, I just love the resources on this list.

Cheers

Les
