Here's a third shot at a panel for my Lightning. I'm nowhere near done, but
just refining as I go. The MGL Avionics Odyssey is an incredibly versatile
instrument and fully programmable, comes with a GPS and both displays are
MFDs. Since I am a bit of a computer geek, this appeals to me in a big way.
My biggest question will be how it fits in the lightning panel. It IS only
60 mm deep, so that helps. I will be looking and dimensioning at Oshkosh.
I hope I will be able to poke my nose in a Lightning or two while I'm there
to get a feel for clearances
The panel is setup with two Odyssey MFDs, compass, Garman SL-40, Garman GTX
327, TL-3524, Trutrak ADI Pilot II, Airspeed, Val AP100, ELT, and some other
stuff.
The MGL stuff is very light weight.
Jim!.

Jim:
I hope you get a chance to look at the support panel around the metal
overlay. I would guess that you will have to cut so much of it away the
there will be very little left at the 2 upper corners and it may break. But
you have to see for your self.

I saw this on another list. I believe it is supposed to be introduced at
Oshkosh this year. No prices yet, but looks intriguing:

Yes John; it's going to be a tight fit. I can move it down some and will
give ti a good look before passing on this one. I like everything about it,
so if it down not fit, I will go with the Enigma which has the same
functionality, yet smaller screen.
I'll be starting on my Lightning in a week and a half, so I will be able to
see it in real life which is always easier to visualize things.
Jim!

That IS pretty cool. I wonder if everything is integrated in to the one
unit, or they are selling several units, each with their own functionality?
