REFLECTOR: Annunicators?

[Jack Prock]

Hi Don,

I think you are wasting a light having both Left and Right Main gear down indicators.
Since they are tied together physically, one Main gear indicator is sufficient. If one of the
Left/Right indicators lights, BOTH main gear are unusable.

  So I'm thinking about building an annunicator panel (with a "Push-to-Test" and dimmer). 

  Currently the list of indicators I have come up with is:

  Pilot Door Unsafe - RED
  CoPilot Door Unsafe - RED
  Low Voltage - RED
  Low Oil Press - RED
  Nose Gear Down - GREEN
  Left Main Down - GREEN
  Right Main Down - GREEN
  Fuel Pump On - AMBER
  Hydraulic Pump On - AMBER
  Pitot Heat - AMBER

  I'm going to have a pair of GRT displays so I'm thinking the low voltage, low oil press would be provided by their engine monitoring and would be unnecessary on an annunicator.

  What else would be good to have on an annunicator panel? Landing, nav and strobe lights?
