Thanks Guys,
I have so far gone with the simple Push Wheel switch that Bob K suggested. I got the parts from Digikey for about $50 for 7 pushwheels, end caps, and a simple black enclosure. I mounted it up in a four button/altitude and three button/heading configuration. Simple and easy to mount.
I'll try to post a photo over the holiday weekend.
Thanks,
Mike

Or http://www.nerdkits.com/. Nice "noob starter" manual comes with the kit.

Hi Mike,
You might look into the "Arduino".

relatively low entry cost and easy access to h/w) and has lots of potential to go crazy (in a good way, of course  . The integrated development environment (IDE) is open-source and works under Linux, Windows, and MacOS X.

I don't have experience in this area, but thought I'd pass it on in the spirit of the original inquiry.
Good luck,
