Can owners of this aircraft post some high-resolution shots of the VC please?
I've noticed varying reviews stating either that everything is fine, or that switch operations and labels are inverted or wrong.
I'd like to take a closer look at various parts of the VC before purchase, so if anyone is able to take some close up shots of various parts of the panel (battery/avionics switches, light switches, fuel selector, radio stack, other gauges, etc), it would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sean

Sean , i got the a/c in question .... dont know why because I'll never fly it ... but i did some screens for you , but Im not sure that they will be much better than the vendor site.
I checked all the switches .... seem fine to me.
Do you want me to post the pics here for you .... will have to be monday night , but its no problem.

If you can post the pics, that would be great. Either in this thread or the screenshot forum. Just trying to take an even closer look before committing money to it.
Thanks very much for doing so!

Those shots are exactly the sort of thing I'm looking for. Greatly appreciated, and I think I'll be adding the 172RG to my collection shortly!

The one thing about today's cockpits they are so immersive , watching one making or going thru process is Jan Visser of MAAM fame building the VC for Manfred Jahns freeware DC-3 ... I should invite Jan and ask he he could post build screens onto a new thread ... It is impressive art work in it own right !

I just finished a short flight in the Cutlass tonight. Just happens that I was flying direct into the sun, and the scratches modeled on the screens reflect the sunlight appropriately giving it an even more realistic feel. Nice little aircraft, and well worth grabbing IMO.
