Was wondering what would be your dream panel if cost was not a factor and why you would choose the instruments you do?


Firstly it would be inside of a KA-6e, and made of varnished birdseye maple, with a pellet vario, and ivory-faced, anodized aluminum instruments

like this:

No GPS, no electronics, other than maybe an audio vario that wouldn't ruin "the feel", and of course a radio. especially one that looks vintage.


the Panel itself looks fine, but ...

- 2 Varios, OK
- 2 ASIs, divergingly readable - no
- and ... 4 Altimeters are a bit much of redundancy ... just my 2 ct.

regards
Werner
