Some photos of our overhead panel.

We decided to incorporate three master switches among other things.

Master main
Master ECU
Master Accessory


The circuit breaker master switch x3 made sense to us. They are backed up by a solenoid of the same caliber as the one used for the main master as to be a true master switch.

Also, Patrick wired in a very professional array of interior lighting options for day and night opts. including amber, white leds, and of course red leds.

They work independently of each other R and L sides as well as white vs red independent lighting.

Did I mention when Patrick wired our intercom he also wired an input 3.5 mm jack for a music source such as an MP3 player. Nice!http://www.AngelAirAviation.com

My partner, Patrick Tope, is very good at what he does. Most people are good at what they like, but Patrick is above any average level - which is exactaly why our SparrowHawk was the -

WINNER of the reserve GRAND CHAMPION-

-at the Arlington EAA Airshow July 5-9th! Patrick deserves the credit for the award as he is the Engineer of this project. My hat is certainly off to Patrick for a job of excellence!

This link has a December newsletter from chapter 73 of the PRA which shows the overhead panel well. You will have to scroll through the newsletter to find it, but it is there. Good day.
