Brief Description:  Instrument Panel Planning

Purchased the ShowPlanes Flap Position System which enables one touch operation for lowering the flaps to the three positions. This requires a different flap switch than I originally installed. Mocked the FPS to understand the installation requirements. It will install on the flap motor extension rod and require some material removal of the arm rest to allow the FPS to operate.

The FPS flap switch has a key at the bottom to keep the switch for rotating. Used some scrap to crate a template and practice a bit before attacking the new sub-panel.
