Subject:   CJ #43 Cockpit
Description:   

Here are photos of my summer restoration of my recently acquired CJ-6 (nose number 43-former Dragon Brigade out of DVT). Besides stripping and powder-coating/painting all, the goal was to 'centralize' scans and bring the important scans in formation/acro as 'heads up' as possible within my budget. All radios, (and that important CD player) are now elevated where the old switches were and are positioned for the throttle hand. The F-106 reclaimed stick (from warbird parts in FL) is wired to switch stby/primary freqs and transmit for some HOTAS capability. Instruments now in IFR (ILS capab) six pack with MP and RPM grouped for scan. The engine instruments are now grouped together in a common pull out panel and the lower sub panel with the red guarded switch is interchangeable/expandable as needed; it now holds oil temp and oil tank shutoff switch & pitch sync. It will later be the arming panel for Doug Sapp's propane gun system using the trigger to ward off Barry. I installed side blankets as seen on older U.S mil aircraft and aviation carpet for a clean look and to hopefully reduce cockpit noise and moderate ckpit temp swings. U.S. switches installed (if I did it again I would stick with the smaller U.S. breaker switches) to the side and configured in to two bus system. - Drew Allen Blahnick / Los Angeles CA
