New control yokes

Out with the old and in with the new.  I have decided to update the interior a little bit and make 04J look nicer inside.  I purchased a pair of yokes from Avion Research and installed them in Serenity.  I did this for a couple of reasons.   The first is that the bow tie yokes look old and dated and the other was because I wanted more control at my finger tips.  Since the FAA disallows modifications of certified aircraft parts, I could not just add a push to talk button.  Avion, had a pair of certified replacements but the cost was high, so I have put it off for some time.  I decided that I should do it because of the convince, increased panel visibility and the excellent look.  As you can see, it is drastically improved.  I could not be happier with the results.
