Yeah, I've been saving that one in case my ship ever comes in. cry It's out of a newer 172. I liked the style of the faces with the vibrant colors, larger numerals and pointy needles. grin

Bengie,
Yup, that's what I want and I think I found one yesterday at Kelly Instruments in Wichita. Nice pair though! (Did I just say that to a guy???)

Yes, technically you're correct. However, in our little flibs, TAS equates to calibrated IAS adjusted for temperature.
