[simpits-tech] Standard aviation guage sizes for a Cessna 172?

[Chris Brace]

Hi Freeman,
Just checked mine and they are 79mm and 56mm respectively. All are the same
sizes except for the yoke hole which mine is 30.5mm
I had my panel but from 4.5mm sheet, I cant remember the name but its not
acrylic, some other stuff that is able to bend and give somewhat rather than
being brittle when bent.
Check out my sim if you'd like to see what can be done. www.chrisb.co.nz.
Look under the Gallery section.

Cheers
Chris.

Does anyone know what the gauge sizes are for a Cessna 172?  I assume they
are the same for all variations of the 172 - I could be wrong.

I'm looking for the inside diameter of the holes on the instrument panel
used to house the standard gauges and engine gauges.  My cessna drawing
shows 79mm for the larger gauges and 56.74mm for the engine gauges.

If I can confirm these I can let Gene have my drawings to cut out my panel
(*drool*).
