Here are a couple of photos of the panel on my Lynx which I did about 4
years ago using Gary's eyebrow.

Nice looking panel! The only thing I would add would be a manifold
pressure gauge to the right of the tach, and swap the JPI and nav head
as Bill suggested.
I assume the yokes are powdercoated? What do you call that textured
finish?

Real nice Cliff. I like the EI gauges. Is your altimeter crystal
cracked?

I think you mean the VSI? I think that is some odd light reflection.
Here is another photo of it.

If I was doing it over again I might use the Mitchell instruments as
they are much cheaper and take up a lot less panel space. I do like the
accuracy of the EI instruments and having a volt and ammeter in the same
instrument as well as oil pressure and temperature. The FP-5L is the
primary one so that fuel pressure is shown on that instrument. Adding
the EI instruments at the top of the standard panel was only possible
because of Gary's eyebrow which angles up so that you can now see clear
to the top of the panel (a very nice mod). A full length light strip is
hidden up under the lip of the eyebrow and floods the entire panel.
Note that I have a separate analog voltmeter on the RH side which is
tied in to an emergency buss.

The yokes are powder coated in hammer tone. The instrument panel is too.
Just a different color.

[quote="flyv35b(at)minetfiber.com"]Nice looking panel! The only thing I would
add would be a manifold pressure gauge to the right of the tach, and swap the
JPI and nav head as Bill suggested.
I put the Nav head next to the ... NAV RADIO! What a concept, huh! :-)
"In the clouds" I have GPS 1 showing the CDI and numerical ground track and desired
track information while GPS 2 shows the moving map display. In this way I
can simply match the #1 displayed Actual Track with Desired Track numbers, check
the deviation from Course on the adjacent CDI, then adjust heading 1 or 2
degrees to change the actual track to correct any error. I've found the "digital
approach procedure" to be far more accurate than chasing needles anyway. YMMV.
I only purchased 1 Nav head because eventually an HSI (Aspen?) will replace the
DG leaving the CDI for Nav 2. Why buy two when you'll be replacing one soon-ish?
My airplane seems to be getting heavy despite leaving stuff out!
... just curious what true benefit a manifold pressure gauge would serve other
than to give Gary a little more $$ for installation costs?

Corl, I have a CHT in my plane. It also shows on my JPI 800. Other than
comparing book values, I rarely use it.
