On Nuttys pic in post #29, you can see how they look. Note that his pic shows the updated Mass switch without the loose key. That was a mod in about '90. Front w/shields didn't seem too expensive either?
Funny thing is, many of us will have flown bits of your collection! Cheers

You know you were saying how it would be good if I could find the coaming/glaresheild panels, well..... Ta-da!
Now the next big step will be to get it all correctly attached to the rudder assembly so I can finally get rid of the box, which, no matter what I add to it is always going to look silly!.
Would still like a genuine LH main instrument panel as well to replace the reproduction, but it is really starting to look like a Tornado cockpit now!
