Mark asked:>Can you tell me, in the views of the cockpit, what are the>two gauges at the bottom of the instrument panel for?Gene replied:>They look like oil pressure and temperature to me.

Not like Texas (0% humility).Oscar ZunigaMedford, Oregonmailto: taildrags(at)hotmail.comwebsite at http://www.flysquirrel.net________________________________________________________________________________
