Instrument panels and wiring a Cessna 206

So the past couple weeks, we haven't really worked on 5Y-CMA too much because there has been a lot of fleet maintenance occurring.  However, David Marwa, our avionics technician, has been steadily doing his wiring while he has free reign of the aircraft.  Nate Killoren also has been helping him by fabricating the instrument panels.  Here's a few pictures of the past week.  I'd like to give a big shout out to David, who's been doing a great job!

Here's Killoren punching the holes out of the panel.  That hydraulic press was made in Travelers Rest, SC, which is where my aunt and uncle used to live!  Crazy!

Fitting the removable right side panel onto the subpanel. 

Check out all those wires David has installed!  He's almost done!  We've already tested all of the radios and lots of the electrical items as well... 

...including landing and taxi lights!  Nice!
