    Hi Alan

    Thought you might know something. That’s an excellent diagram thanks and shows the components that we need to fill in the gaps

    cheers

    Glad to see measurments of my flight deck structure are helping to assemble the Projects flightdeck…any news on my castings ?

    Thanks to you and Cebro giving us access to useful relics and Peters’ drawing endeavours the flight deck is coming along really well.

    As for the castings, Pino has your email and I’ll remind him tonight to get back to you asap.

    It may seem that we’ve been quiet as we’ve not posted in a while, but in fact work has been progressing at quite a fast rate although you might not know it looking at the pictures.

    As with most things, you need to get the correct info to prgress and thanks to CeBro we were given a piece of wreckage which had just the info required. This allowed us to correctly map out the seat, controls and frame mounting positions on the longitudinal floor beams.

    The upshot of this is that the first bits of real fuselage structure are in the process of being assembled with the transverse floor beams at Frames 4 and 5 being located and the 1st pilots seat beams drilled and temporarily assembled to them. As you can see from the pictures the control column is now drilled and assembled to the floor beam which will allow us to commence work on the 2nd pilots assembly ensuring that they are parallel to each other.

    Enjoy….

    AID stands for Aircraft Inspection Department, basically the Ministry quality inspectors. the part would be stamped as being approved for use.

    Was it four 0.303’s in an FN4? That should stop anyone in their tracks!
