				Sometimes the comments on this list have a more far-reaching application than 
 one might imagine. I've been arguing with myself on when I needed to buy 
 avionics, since I suspect it may be easier to install before zipping things 
 up.
 
 I'm planning on making the upper surface of the panel removable, so access is 
 more a matter of convenience than impossibility. Based on that, and the 
 comments about how rapidly avionics change (which I knew, but I guess it 
 needed reinforcing), I'm pretty much convinced to hold off until everything 
 else is done.
 
 I'm talking about the GPS, the radio, and the transponder. I have an 
 altimeter, ASI, and similar steam gauge instruments on hand, so they can be 
 installed much earlier.
