Great stuff and a trip down memory lane for me as a former B-shopper on C & D models. One of my first redballs was for an FTIT gauge swap on the #2 motor. Hanging off the side of the jet with one motor still running trying to keep a level head and save a sortie. Most people have no idea how crazy and difficult a redball like that was! Keep up the good work, man!

Always good to see some progress on the F15 front and who better for the gauges than Mike! Pretty awesome that.

Yeah, he's pretty amazing. He shows up with a box of stuff based on some screen shots of the pinouts and it all works the first time out of the gate. The man is a f'ing wizard. :)

Probably far fetched but do aircraft boneyards (like the David Monthan AFB Boneyard) sell or give away parts of scrapped aircraft? They have a whole line of F15s there.

I don't know if there's a surplus arm of DMAFB or not. It's too far away for me to drive by & check. ;) It would be cool to have a full set of real engine gauges though.
