Brief Description:  Right Eyebrow Panel and Console

I started off the session completing the pitot heat power circuit by attaching the switch wire and indicator light to the switch with a fast-on connector.

Next I went on to cleko the right eyebrow panel in place in order to wire the strobe sync switch. A little back story...I really ended up with an extra switch hole from changing my mind on something so since there is an option on the Aeroleds to use a sync wire to have all strobes flash at the same time I decided to use a switch to have the option "to sync or not to sync"! It is my opinion that an aircraft is more visible when the strobes are flashing randomly but there are times when it can be distracting to both those on the ground and in the cockpit......so I decided on giving the option and filling the hole.....a win-win!

So I used a 2-3 DPST switch and wired it so the strobes will be defaulted to "unsynched" but can be synched with the flip of the switdh.

I decided the next item would be to assemble the right console enough to get the angle panel in place and start wiring it up. So the angles and panels are ready now for some wiring.
