I am in the begining phase of building a c-182/c-172 cessna glass cockpit for fs2004.

...
Real c-182 glass cockpit.


All knobs and switches will work in fs using http://www.opencockpits.com hardware.

I will be using http://www.projectmagenta.com/products/gagc.html General Aviation Glass Cockpit software using fsuipc and widefs.

i have drew the 2 multy function displays using a program called front panel designer by
http://www.frontpanelexpress.com/.
....
i will be making more of the panels once i get back from marching band tonight. in the end i expect to spend in the area of $4000-$5000 dollars. i would like any input on things you think that could be better.

That looks like quite an undertaking, Racer. Good luck with it.
