I'm upgrading my panel, currently a work in progress. there will be a Zaon Pcas not displayed as well that will output to the EFIS display.

Here is a after/before shot.

What are the before/after PFDs? They don't look like Dynon's which seem to be the most popular.

Looks like you've given up the analog backups. What's the new backup plan? Was there a weight cost or saving?

Seems like there are more ideas about what makes good panel than there are pilots. I like the nice clean look of your new panel.

Congrats on the upgrade. The big display looks great.

the displays are blue mountain avionics EFIS / two and Lite Plus

i'm downgrading to 2 1/4" airspeed and altimeter and they are going on the right panel.

we are adding a zaon pcas as well but still expect a slight weight savings.

Thanks for the pics.
I'm a good while away from laying out my panel, but I'm collecting as much info as I can.

View out the front of the plane is pretty awesome tool!
