4 hours total 616

Nothing much happened recently.

I've cleaned up the canopy frame and done a few test fits.
I still need to trim the canopy and drill it to attach to the frame, but that's best done when it is warm and the plexi is a bit more flexible. Drilling and cutting plexi when it is cold can make it crack and that would be expensive!
And winter has arrived, the temperatures are lower and so I think I'll wait for a hot day before I attempt that.

There's plenty of other misc. tasks to get on with and I'll do those over the winter.

But a bit of good news: the interior arrived !
I have leather seats, sidewalls pockets, stick boots, a nice carpet etc.
I temporarily dropped it in to see how it looks ! (yes I did get in and make airplane noises...)

Unpacked:



test fit !
