| Subject: | Home made center console? |
Michael you might be interested in this
I have a aluminum center armrest console which is just like the Carbon fiber
ones Aerosport
Sells. This was a prototype I only made one. I need to sell it and it would
make a great addition
For anyone looking for a center armrest. It comes with the interior bucket
as well.
Cost is $300.00 includes ground shipping anywhere here in the Continental
US.

Hi Chris,
That is exactly like what I was thinking, but maybe with a way to integrate
a cup holder.... I would love more pictures, especially of the top part.
Feel free to send them off list if you wish. Thank you!

has headset jacks in the front and a power outlet in the back. Not pictured
is the armrest pad on top. I did not ever cover it in carpet or cloth I left
the sides polished aluminum. There are angles on the bottom which 4 bolts go
through to nutplates on the tunnel cover. To remove the console I just reach
inside it and remove the 4 bolts. Since headset jack wiring is inside I have
a CPC to disconnect that wiring and the power outlet. More photos upon
request.

to make something retrofittable to my flying aircraft. Thinking it will
screw into the tunnel cover between the seats and be carpeted on the sides
to match. A cup holder or two would be nice. Of course it would double as
an arm rest and storage.

Their 406 apparently didn't work.

It would probably depend on which 406 with what features. I'm not aware
of standard 406 models triggering for anything but G force.

I have the ACK E-04 and it has a push button on the panel to activate the
ELT.
I'll still carry a SPOT though. It's especially useful for water landings
(when you drift away) or when you might need to hike out.
Some of the newer variants of SPOT allow for you to connect your cell phone
via Bluetooth to send 2-way messages to people on the ground. That's a
nice feature to have when you're running late and the family in on the
ground worrying about your welfare.

I can also activate mine via a switch that is installed on the panel.

Here is a more in depth account from the pilot. He mentions activating the
406 before ditching and possible cause of fire.
