Hi Cheryl88> pull up a chair and check yourself in to the nut club! And man did you pick a tough one. Only place I know of is FDS for 747 parts and at that I don't know how many he has. http://www.flightdecksolutions.com/ (http://www.http://www.flightdecksolutions.com/) Maybe someone else here knows of more places?

Welcome to the boards. So far, as Mr. Reed has stated, Flight Deck Solutions is the only place to get 747 panels. They are pricey but the panels and accessories look sweet and true to the real deal.

If you are interested in the real panels I beleive that Scroggins Aviation is dismantaling one now at the Airport in Mojave CA. do a google search for them and contact them to see about that. I drove past there today and saw one in the process of beign dismantled.
