Hope you are on the mend Bex

Where are you - the silence is deafening!

Ebay was the source - they have many uses ie caravans, ute covers. The measurements were guesstimates based on AA's knowledge of such things.

That's the one ClintonB - and here was I thinking of calling it the Flying Rivet

Evidence of gas struts fixed to doors

Hey ya - there is a gas strut on it which is holding it open. You possibly can't see it for all the paraphernalia in the background.

My god the door actually works

A question - does anyone have a current phone number for Wicks?

Vroom vroom and more vroom - also was time to consider what an instrument panel may end up looking like, consider less reflective colours/materials in the cabin area, using the stick, etc

At long last the seat looks like it will finally work. I put the upholstered cover on it this morning and sat in it for a while as we pondered throttle cable & door latch placement

Not at this stage - been doing door frames and other bits and pieces and watching out for procrastination

Thanks for your support bex

A couple more pictures and a little more progress

Aside from aircraft building I had a visitor today who I think may be living under my house on a diet of frogs & mice

All this conversation about my project while I've been busy working - I didn't think anyone was particularly interested other than me

No - not yet anyway Just playing with it ATM

my rudder pedal adjuster

One day there will be legs & wheels One day I'll get to fly too!!!

No - not at all In late February I put a photo of the fuel tanks on this thread and they are wing tanks

That's an interesting catalogue they have - I'll have to bookmark it. Ta

Where did the seat come from deskpilot?
