Hangar Flying / Builder Advice Please
« on: May 30, 2016, 10:08:30 PM »
Hello.
I'm looking at an O-235 Long-Ez for possible purchase - inspecting it in the next couple of weeks. The instrument panel is OK, but I would want to update a few of the steam gauges and redo the layout. I have a question for those who have built a Long-Ez - is the instrument panel an integral component of the structure, and/or can I build a new one to replace the older one. The current owner can't help me with this advice, as he didn't build the aeroplane himself. Appreciate any advice.
Tks,
Jim
