Brief Description:  Instrument panel planning.

I have spent many hours planning my instrument panel (20 is a very low estimate). I used Panel Planner J Software for the layout. This is my final, final version (I think). I will use the Dynon D100 EFIS/ D120 EMS and AP-74 Expansion module. The Garmin GTX-327 Transponder, Garmin Aera 500 GPS (396 pictured), Garmin SL-40 Comm, analog airspeed, altitude, magnetic compass, a Sigtronics SCI-4 intercom. A Vertical Power VP-50 system will provide circuit protection and switching. On the lower right hand panel I will have the AP-74 module installed, back up circuit switches (flaps and fuel boost) as well as a few conventional C/B's to protect the few circuits I want isolated from the VP-50 in case it should pack it in. My Infinity grip will take care of the radio and intercom PTT, the A/P disconnect, flaps (disabled above Vfe), and boost pump.
