Starting to come together now...
Glareshield and new panel added.
Look at all of those holes!
Instrument holes will be filled with functional gauges as I complete them. Yoke is protruding through an instument hole, which will have a bushing for it to slide in soon. When stick controls are used, the hole will have a cover plate or a gauge installed.
One of the switch panels...
...the key switch is a 6-way rotary switch coupled to an actual key cylinder... works extremely well. The whole mechanism was about 10 dollars of materials and 1 hour of work.
another beauty shot
To the right, you can see the flap and gear panels without the levers in. They are done and will be in soon! Gear lights are bi-color LED's, and as with everything else, will operate.
...a close up photo of the workings of the yoke system. Man, this thing is the SH#$! It works so well. After installing a mic button that I use with game commander 2 and Proflight 2000, a whole new level of immersion has been reached.
