AdamJD Posted December 4, 2023 Report Posted December 4, 2023 I have a M20F which had the mixture and prop in the "wrong" configuration, Throttle - Mixture - Propeller. I replaces all cables with McFarlane cables and put them in the correct order - Throttle - Propeller - Mixture. However, I had to re-label these to be legal. Right now, these are cheap maker labels. Does anyone have advice on how to get some sort of stencil to match the original labeling? See below for what the labeling looks like for my circuit breakers. This is what I want to replicate. Thanks! Quote

PT20J Posted December 4, 2023 Report Posted December 4, 2023 It also looks like the A/P legend was added. If that means autopilot, it is usually customary to have it on a separate "pull off" type breaker so that it can be quickly disabled if it malfunctions. Quote

While I agree I was thinking it might be an S-Tec 30 AP which is in the TC. Quote
AdamJD Posted December 5, 2023 Author Report Posted December 5, 2023 Haha! Careful what you post if you don't want the feedback. This plane is new-ish to me. Bought it in 2022. 1st - Buss vs. Bus: Not sure how this plane has passed annual all these years! Lol. 2nd - A/P w/ TC: My guess is that this was because of the Brittain PC and Accutrak system. The adjustment for the Accutrak was actually done with a knob on the T/C. So I think my T/C is a special one specifically for the Accutrak. Both the PC and Accutrak have been removed and I now have a GFC500 on a breaker on the avionics bus (one S). 3rd - Aerographics: Thanks for the recommendation! I'll check them out. Thank you all! 1 Quote
