The GPS is what has to be easily removable -- and it still is.

I've heard it described as a "non-structural hole filler" for the
panel. Others have said that a 337 is major overkill for a minor
alteration. I think this is the way we're leaning.
Now, to find an A&P that'll do it when we have the rest of our panel
worked on.

Maybe we can get this damn panel all fixed up in the Hawk and I can get
back to working on my ticket! Don't worry, the GPS will just be along
for emergencies until after the checkride.

BTW Jay, I bought your old Narco Com 120 from Mike Spera late last year
and I'm happy to report it's still working perfectly, knock on wood.

Thanks for everyone's input. I've been a lurker for a couple of years
now and always find the discussions amusing and sometimes helpful
