OK.... I've reached panel "design freeze"! To fit it all together requires an additional 2" below the Van's standard panel. Van's will punch out an extended replacement panel for around $80, done deal!
GRT EFIS & EIS units are on order and should be here in a couple weeks. Based on panel and equipment decisions, I put together some power distribution drawings for the FWF and Panel. I've decided to enlist Pacific Coast Avionics to do the actual panel wiring and bench test it. I figure what it costs to have them do it will save me the cost of a radio when I "smoke check it" if it had been all my wiring! Besides, there is PLENTY wiring outside the panel I get the pleasure of doing.
Getting past this layout and electrical drawing phase is a huge burden lifted off the shoulders!
