On or around page 29A-08 there's some confusion on my part concerning which bolts for attaching the instrument panel (face). In particular, step 2 says to machine countersink all the .144 holes in the Skyview instrument panel right map box. Yet when I look at other builders I see pan-head (?) screws attaching the face panels.
On page 29A-11 it calls for AN507C632R8 screws which need to be countersunk. Why am I seeing most builders using AN screws that do not need to be countersunk?
Lastly, I have not ordered my avionics package. I remember seeing somewhere a comment that stated I shouldn't worry about attaching the instrument face panels until I receive my avionics. Is that correct? I know my left panel is a temp piece, but the center and the right panels appear to be the ones I'll use as I am going with one screen.
Thanks,
Lee
