Nick from APHS sent this out to me (along with the trip reminder for my yoke). This is from Delta Airlines N478DA.
It's a little dirty, but will clean up nicely. I'm going to refinish it and I still have to check all of the lamps. The fluorescent fixture for the center of the panel is installed, but the ballast was cut away. Now I'm searching for a replacement. I hope I don't have to end up buying one of the available desk lamps or machine lamps only to k-ball the innards out of it.
The really neat thing about this rack is how it attaches to the top of the instrument panel.
The 1/4 turn long screws at the top of each indivivual panel pass through the upper framework for the MIP and then pass into recepticals in the glareshield rack. Pretty neat.
I had no idea it extended so far over the edge of the instrument panel. Where you see it now is where it goes.
The engine instrument panel in the center is out for a coat of paint.
