When you’re facing a major update to your legacy airplane’s instrument panel, it’s easy to get distracted by the big-ticket, high-visibility items such as integrated flight decks, navigators, and large-format multifunction displays. While the utility of such cool new avionics appeals, the unsung heroes in a new panel don’t get as much attention—and they should. Upgrades such as overhauled aircraft instruments, panel lighting, circuit breaker boards, and all of the electronics behind panel deserve serious attention as well—and that is the sandbox in which Mid-Continent Instruments & Avionics has played for decades for the average general aviation aircraft owner.
