| L-1011 F/O Audio Panel and SELCAL Panel Installation |
The power up of our L-1011 panels continues. Jim and myself powered up a total of 4 additional panels and also installed the necessary cable bundles for the instruments. Today we powered up the F/O side audio panel, the SELCAL panel located on the aft center console (see below). Currently the Captain's side and the F/O side audio panels are different. The F/O panel is actually just a placeholder for now; it will be replaced with an audio panel identical to the Captain's next week.

We further powered up the Cabin Pressurization module on the upper Second Officer console as well as the APU Control panel located on the lower S/O console (see below).

The Lockheed L-1011 Cabin Pressure Control panel is a really neat instrument. It has two large windows with a tape behind them for adjustments. The window on the left hand side sets the Flight Altitude and the one on the right sets the barometric pressure (see below).

Besides the panel light up, Jim started preparing the Pilot's and First Officer's side consoles for the installation of the audio connectors. The side console holds connectors for the headset an headset-boom microphone; a handheld microphone and the audio connectors for the oxygen masks.
