This is generally my panel in a 2009 P92 Echo Classic. The pic is not quite up to date. The Garmin 496 has been replaced with a Garmin Aera 500 series, and the Trutrak Vizion380 AP has been replaced by a Trutrak Gemini AP. The later occupies the opening left when I removed the Trutrak ADI. No need for both. All in all, it looks pretty much the same. I'm just a steam gauge kind of pilot. I also own and fly a 1947 Aeronca 11AC Chief. Obviously no glass in that!

Should have posted this some time ago - here is my Astore panel. The pic is from the Plane & Pilot review that featured my aircraft (done in 2015) as the first turbo Astore in the US ... but the panel remains unchanged so far. I do plan some upgrades, however, within the next several months ...
Cheers!

This is an updated pic. I simplified over the last couple of years.

Those garmins sure are intriguing... I do find the steam gauges enlightening, I always get that sense of wanderlust when the needles move.

geobuff - my 2017 Astore has the same heater set up as yours. It's useless. I'm flying when it's as low as 17 degrees, and I look like Ralphie in "A Christmas Story".

Montana Pilot,
The muffler heater on the 914 does not provide a lot of heat. That's why we have the coolant heater. Being from Montana your salesperson should have strongly recommended the coolant heater. We have added the coolant heater to a few aircraft and you may want to look into that. Let me know.

Here's my panel in a P2008. The Tecnam guys hit a home run when they put this design into the new models. I can't imagine anything I would change unless I was adding a GTN-type navigator for IFR capabilities (I'm jealous of ChiMike).
