				Pic 8 of 22 shows the panel with three large square cut-outs.  Clearly it is headed the route of "All Glass".  Wonder who is going to win that contract.  
 
 Since it is intended as LSA.  They will have to pick one vendor.  Dynon, GRT, Chelton, Advanced Flight Systems, Garmin?  Hmmmm......

				Actually, I believe the RV-12 will be licensed in the Experimental category, but can be flown by LS pilots, thereby allowing builders to select what ever they want. The LSA registration is only for LSA certified aircraft, something that in the past Van has said he has no intentions of doing. There are currently no certified light sport kits, only certified LS aircraft. It's my understanding the LS certification has to come first, and then the company can certify a kit, along with a builders manual that tells exactly how the aircraft is to be built allowing absolutely no modifications in materials or procedures and also does not have to comply with the 51% rule. For instance, all Sonexes are registered in the experimental category. They are not certified LSA.
