HAH!! Found the little so-and-so! There was another whole FSDS2 Vanguard folder hiding in my Aircraft files! It is now equipped with the correct panel.
On an entirely different note not all has been doom and gloom around here. We thought we were going to be faced with another move because our landlord had to put this house up for short sale due to his wife losing her job at Edwards AFB (been happening to a lot of civilian contractors, including my wife's cousin). Fortunately things have worked out in our favor as my wife's boss told her husband and he graciously offered to buy the house and then sell it to us. That's a huge thing as we could never qualify for a mortgage right now. We both love this house and the location as it's very close to my wife's family. It's not perfect, but darned close.
The climate here is also pretty easy on my arthritis, not a minor concern - when I visited my dad's house just before he died (middle of July in SE Texas - not a pleasant climate at all) I was in abject misery. 100°F with 90%+ humidity is a killer. It gets even hotter here, but it's a dry, desert heat that's kind to my aching back. Rain is rare. Wish I could say the same for the wind but hey, I'll take it!
What I forgot to mention is that buying this house at the asking price ($35,000) is basically pocket change for this guy. He's senior partner in a CPA (accounting) firm whose clientele is almost exclusively from Hollywood. Not the stars and directors so much as the cinematographers, script writers, sound engineers - basically the noncoms of the film industry, the REAL power behind the screen.

You can say that again. That part of Texas in the summertime is pure torture.
