Brief Description:  Deconstructing The Panel Wiring

I removed all of the spiral wrap from the instrument panel wiring today and also removed all of the various clamps and wire ties holding everything in place. I had kind of forgotten just how much wiring was back there! And just about every single wire has a verbose label on each end. Unfortunately, it is more clear than every before, however, that saving any of this old wiring for the new build will be just about impossible. Too many wires snake their way down though the gear legs and other bulkheads and will be impossible to recover without a fair amount of chopping. All those point-to-points will have to be done again and all of those labels remade. This is going to take forever...

Oh, woe is me... :-(
