Laying out anInstrument panel?
I am in the delightful process of laying out an experimental instrument panel. I have some general human factors knowledge and am discovering one or Two things (switches grouped and spaced 25mm apart as per U.S. military study).
There is a Skyview EFIS, backup altitude and ASI a radio (or perhaps Two), magnetic compass on top and transponder to be fitted as well as warning lights and stuff.
I would welcome tips, suggestions references and the like especially any "don't do this" gotchas.
Simple, inherently obvious placement and good design is the objective, not some overly complex copy of an F18 cockpit.
