Good looking bird Rick!

I wonder if your plane is any relation to this one?

I always liked that scheme since I first ran accross this pic on AOPA.

Nice instrument panel. What is the instrument below the #2 nav indicator. I would assume an ADF head or some such, but then what is the instrument to the left of the turn coordinator?

Anyway, nice pictures, nice looking airplane.

Kevin,
Below the Nav 2 head is a back-up DG, and to the left of the turn coordinator is the ADF head.

Thanks. Backup DG is an interesting choice. I have an electric backup AI in my airplane, seems like that would be a more valuable backup. Why do you prefer the DG, or is there a historical reason for this...

Kevin,
A backup AI would be my first choice as well but this was already in the airplane. I could see a backup DG if one was using a Sandel EHSI.

The next thing to do is to pull the ADF and then put a backup AI where the head is currently located.
