Hasegawa 1/32 P-40E. Update 5-23

In your collection do you have a decent or a couple of decent representations of the rear of the instrument panel?

Keep in mind that armor covers it but there are glimpses during restoration. It will take a while to go through the manuals. In the meantime, click the photos to visit the restorations:

I also go to warbird parts stores:

A few more photos from an Australian government run museum made from original parts. Keep in mind the manuals would cover each intrsument separately and how to connect them so it will be a lot of images, if found.

It isn't confusing for me as I graduated from Aviation High School with Airframe & Powerplant licenses as well as an avionics degree (taken during summer school). Part of the classes were drafting WITHOUT the use of AutoCad. Not everyone was so blessed as we were!
 
I started out with writing sticks and pens drawing on vellum, mylar and linen. First rule, never make more mistakes in the morning than you can erase in the afternoon.

We switched to Intergraph's Interactive Graphics Design System (IGDS) in the mid-80's in the days when it ran on a VAX 11/780, magnetic tape reels and hard drives the size of a coffee table. It has since morphed into Microstation.

You do come up with the detail paperwork Saúl!

I was a draftsman for over 20 years before becoming a watchmaker. The last 10 years I did drafting, I also did circuit board prototypes and sheet metal fabrication. Had 3 years of drafting in high school, 3 semesters of A& P aircraft training in college and 2 semesters of mechanical technology which covered metallurgy and machining.

So

NOT confused at all.
