When posting to another forum, a question came to mind. About 18 months ago, I completely redid the electrical system of my Fly Baby, moving all the components from a box on the floor to the panel itself.
One thing I didn't restore was the nav lights and strobe. Operating a Sport Pilot, these aren't really needed (my Fly Baby is old). I basically ran out of panel space to mount either the combination switch-circuit breakers I had before (neat, but huge) or to add two switches and Klixon pull-type circuit breakers.
However, thinking about it, I might have room just for the circuit breakers themselves. Now, I rarely use the lights...would it be acceptable to NOT install switches, and just leave the breakers out all the time? Seems reasonable to me, but....
