Panel templates by aircraft
Panel templates, under Panel Designer in the main menu, lists the aircraft in the template library by manufacturer. Click an aircraft to open its page.
An aircraft's page shows
- Every panel template for that aircraft on one page: the aircraft manufacturer's templates and those from panel manufacturers such as Aerosport Products and Hangar Flying. Each card gives the template's manufacturer, what sets it apart (for example "Tip-up Canopy" or "Tall panel with centerlines"), its width and height in inches, and how many panels have been laid out on it.
- A Van's RV and its A model (the RV-8 and the RV-8A, for example) have the same panel and share one page, named for the model without the A.
- The number of panels laid out on the aircraft's templates.
- The newest exported designs for the aircraft. Designs are shown without names or registration numbers.
- The equipment builders install most often in that aircraft's panel.
