For an Instrument Panel with Aluminum
inserts and I was told I could not use regular steel nutplates to attach
the inserts to the panel because of interference with
instruments. What do I use?
I've seen quite a few instrument panels that use #6 nutplates (K1000-06 or
MK1000-06) mounted in the fiberglass instrument panel frame. I
don't see why this would interfere with the instruments. Maybe if you had
several of them really close to the mag compass it might be affected a
little. Did the person who said not to use them state the specific
interference problem?
