Evening All, I've started the build of the main MIP and getting along nicely. I hope this is not too much of a newbie question. I know the difference between an annunciator and a switch but in the main panel how do I tell the difference. As an example on the MIP build PDF doc I can see the Korry type inserts for 'TAKEOFF CONFIG', SPEEDBRAKE ARMED' 'STAN OUT OF TRIM' etc... I also understand the LED side of these but how do I know if they are 'clickable' at all or just annunciators. Is there a list somewhere of what is just an annunciator or both a push button which I can put an action against and an annunciator. Thanks to the forum so far for the help....

Hello again! If you update the 757/767 TQ designs at all, I highly recommend adding some material and enlarging the 3mm screw holes to allow for threaded brass inserts. I tried using one on the current design and upon insert it sank way too deep given the lack of appropriate material underneath and to the sides of the holes. The reason to use the inserts IMHO is for a much tighter clamping force on the cover plates on the handle to get rid of any unsightly gaps.
