Re: New/Upgraded panels for DC6B, DC7, DC7B, & DC7C

Yes those gauges are indeed missing, but it seems that they were also missing from the Tom Gibson panel which I used as my starting point...

Re: 707-420 Engine Gauges Question

OK, P7 it is! I checked that airliners.net photo again, and the gauges indicated 29.9 with the engines shut down (which sounds very much like atmospheric pressure, in inches of mercury).

Re: 707-420 Engine Gauges Question

I noticed in the photo that the gauges were reading about 30% even though the engines are clearly off (the N1 and N2 RPM gauges are indicating zero). I wonder if these gauges are EPR multiplied by a scaling factor (to make correct take-off power equal to 100%). Any more info?

Is that outlet v. inlet pressure difference?

707-420 Engine Gauges Question

What did the percentage-calibrated top-row engine gauges on the 707-420 measure? (The ones where the EPR gauges would be on other 707 marques). I could only find one image on airliners.net and the resolution's too low to read the gauges.
