MiG-21 pit reference photos/scale? - 02/23/15 03:13 PM
I'm gearing up to start a MiG-21 pit build, and cannot for the life of me find any info on the dimensions of the panels. Does anyone have a good source I can use to get rolling?

Some cool pics on that 'szextant...' site. Nice find, spitty.
Wraith could you get a comparative scale from other drawings and apply to this pic from the site he linked?
That would be a very cool seat for a sim-pit.

Ive contacted a friend of mine who has a Su22 pit and hoping to get some instrument measurements off him.

For example, I never realized how awesome the Mig-21 looked from this angle:

Curves in all the right places 
Am moving house at the moment but got enough info to start on a cockpit loft.

Just got an email from Paul..Mig21 panel is..
The centre panel is made of 2mm thick aluminium with rolled over edges, it is 32cm wide and 34 cm high (in the middle), the 2 side panels are approx. 10.6 cm wide.
Most of the gauges are 80mm in diameter with mounting holes 81mm in diameter, the exceptions being the artificial horizon which is 110mm in diameter with a 111mm diameter hole, the air pressure gauge (I think for brakes) is 60mm diam in a 61mm hole and the 2 small gauges at the bottom are 40mm diam in 41mm diam holes.
The hole for the rectangular warning panel in the lower centre is 31mm wide and 76mm high.

I think we have scared Wraith444 off... 
Interesting how similar the Stick top is to the Kg13.

Send me an image of dimension lines you need and next time I visit the local aviation museum I can measure those for you. I have access to a MiG-21BiS cockpit.
