Researched Dual-Sticks configuration & Linear Actuator for Flaps

George Rice's Dial Sticks Configuration

George Rice's Dual-Sticks - note Linear Actuator for flaps

Purchased drawings for 750 Dual Sticks Option.  Spoke with George Race about his dual sticks installation in the 701.  George suggested that the manual flaps actuator be discarded and replaced with a linear actuator under the pilot seat. George says that he used a the Ray Allen Electric Elevator Trim indicator and switch.

The dual sticks installation allows for a single, centrally mounted throttle and a small console running from between the seats to the bottom of the Instrument Panel.  Panel is a nice pace to mount the Viking View EIS & the dual VDO Fuel Gauges.
