Dear Simmers,

 

I'm just curious in what the most 737 cockpit builders are interested to.

 

QUESTION: What are you looking for if you were to buy an 737NG Overhead panel? ( considering cost and quality )

 

 

1° An overhead panel which is fully operational ( Plug n' Play ) => Very High cost, No work

 

2° An overhead panel which is standard fully operational ( Plug n' Play with less attention to detail ) => High cost, No work

 

3° An overhead panel which I bought online without any buttons, gauges, switches so you have to make it yourself => Medium cost, A lot of work

 

4° An overhead panel of which I bought every part ( 18 panels ) separately and assembled myself => High Medium cost, Work

 

5° An overhead panel which I fully made myself ( with wood, own structure ) => Low Medium cost, Huge amount of Work

 

6° An overhead panel which I bought second-hand ( fully working ) => Average High Medium cost, almost no work

 

 

Please state your answer, I would love some opinion on this matter since al those internet websites offer various types which come at sometimes very high prices ( +- 6000 euros )

 

What are YOU looking for in an O/H panel if you opt to buy one?

 

Greetings,

 

Wout

Some reply please?!?

Honestly I would buy the parts and build one. Then you know all about troubleshooting and it is the lowest cost as for getting something that is worth the quality! Thanks for this, check out my thread if you have any questions about building one!

 

Cheers,
