Panels built for your airplane. Not a template.
We design, CNC-cut, coat and engrave instrument panels around your exact avionics. We work with owners planning an upgrade and with shops that need a panel done right the first time.
Three ways to get your panel
Design it yourself, send us your list, or hand us the whole project. Every panel gets the same precision.
Design it yourself
Lay out your panel online with Hangar Flying’s Panel Designer and send it straight to us to build.
- Design to scale with real equipment sizes
- Submit from the designer in a few clicks
- We quote, then draw, cut, coat and engrave
Panel only
Send your equipment list and measurements. We design the layout, you approve it, and we deliver a finished panel ready to install.
- Layout drawing for your approval first
- Cutouts machined to your avionics
- Delivered ready for you or your shop to install
Complete upgrade
We take the whole panel project from start to finish, so you fly away behind a clean, modern cockpit.
- Panel design built around how you fly
- Fabrication & finishing in-house
- Done at our shop in Weyers Cave, Virginia

We build it
We draw the CAD file, cut, coat and engrave your panel, and keep you posted along the way.
Panel designs are planning aids. Verify measurements and check with your A&P about FAA requirements for alterations.
Everything in-house
One shop draws, cuts, finishes and labels your panel, so the pieces fit together and nothing gets lost between vendors.
CAD Drawing
Your layout becomes a precise technical drawing, measured to your equipment, before any metal is cut.
CNC Cutting
Every cutout is machined to the exact dimensions of your avionics, so instruments seat flush and the panel stays rigid.
Coating
Pick the color and finish, from classic grays to something that’s unmistakably yours, in a durable cockpit coating.
Engraving
Legends, placards and logos are engraved permanently into the panel. They stay crisp and readable, with no stickers or label tape.
From photo to finished panel
Tell us about your airplane
Send us the make, model and year, photos of your current panel, and the avionics you plan to install. A Hangar Flying design works too.
Approve the layout
We draw the panel around your equipment and how you fly. Nothing is cut until you sign off.
We cut, coat & engrave
Your panel is machined, finished and labeled in-house at our shop in Weyers Cave, Virginia.
Install or ship
We complete the upgrade here, or deliver a ready-to-install panel to you or your shop.
Panels pilots are proud of
Aircraft we’ve built panels for
We build for general aviation, experimental, light-sport and warbird aircraft. Don’t see yours? Ask us. Every panel starts from your airplane’s measurements.
Can I design my own panel?
Yes. Lay it out to scale in the Hangar Flying Panel Designer, then submit it through their CAD, Cut, Paint & Label service. The request comes straight to us for a quote.
How do I get a quote?
Fill out our Get a Quote form with your aircraft and the avionics you plan to install, or call us at (540) 908-7282, Monday to Friday, 7am to 6pm.
Do you install panels, or just build them?
Both. We can deliver a finished panel ready for you or your shop to install, or take on the complete panel upgrade at our shop in Weyers Cave, Virginia.
Do you build for experimentals and warbirds?
Yes. Beyond certified Cessnas, Pipers and Bonanzas, we’ve built panels for a RANS S-21, a T-6 Texan and a Harvard Mk IV.
