    Another month of beavering away at the many castings that makes up the flightdeck jigsaw has seen us assemble the seat chassis to the rails. This now slides back and fore with ease and the seat adjuster has now been fully assembled to lock the seat in the desired position. We’ve learnt several lessons from the P2 side which will assist us when it comes to the P1. It’s all temporarily assembled for the time being although we are within an ace of fully assembling the P2 seat and rails and putting it to one side and finished in primer for the time being.

    Here’s the latest batch of castings back from the foundry. They are for the seat adjustment mechanism (fore/aft and up/down) plus the support for the elevator torque tube under the P1 seat and some sundry brackets for seat harness and floor supports.

    I’d like to think that we’re coming to the end of the cast items, but somehow I doubt it:rolleyes:

    Here’s the seat rollers and special bolts who were made by a kind Stirling fan and donated to the project. The picture shows the required number for both seats plus some originals that came from an aircraft dump and which will be used in the assembly. The originals are top right btw 😎

    If anyone has any Stirling (or bomber) related items they’re thinking of bringing, we’d be very interested to look at them;)

    Well done John and team. Make this a year of great progress for the project. Without a doubt more clues will appear from a certain watery area.

    Keep it up

    Cees

    Thanks Cees and Rob

    And as for your comment Cees, we’re counting on more goodies appearing from the depths:diablo:

    cheers all
