JMACK,

Actually, the tilt panel is something engineering has been looking at, and they will also be incorporating the tilt panel into the CJ4. The 680 spawned alot of good ideas such as the push button (blue for "on", white for "off") that will also be on the CJ4. I don't think you will ever see overhead switches on any new models though. No doubt about your landing, short field is the name of the game with that airplane!
