Claim 10:
11. A resistive touch sensor for an aircraft display application, comprising:
a base layer;
a sensor top sheet positioned in spaced apart relation above the base layer;
a peripheral edge seal provided between the sensor top sheet and the base layer;
a first adhesive layer bonded along a peripheral edge portion of the sensor top sheet;
a second adhesive layer, inset relative to the peripheral edge seal, positioned between the first adhesive layer and the sensor top sheet, the second adhesive layer bonded on a first side to the first adhesive layer and bonded on a second side to a portion of the sensor top sheet corresponding to a touch active area, wherein the second adhesive layer alters the planarity of the sensor top sheet proximate the peripheral edge seal such that the touch active area is positioned closer to the base layer as compared to the peripheral edge portion of the sensor top sheet; and
a cover layer bonded on the first adhesive layer.
