    Foredeck, instrument panel, windshield assembly

    Filed under: Canopy, Fuselage, Hull, Instrument Panel — Darryl @ 12:13 am

    [0.5 hours] One of the treasures that I snagged from Fran Nealy (story here) was a foredeck, windshield, instrument panel assembly. The dash comes with a throttle quadrant and some instruments. I spent a little time cleaning and inspecting this today.

    The windshields cleaned up pretty well. I noticed a small crack in the left windshield (it is barely visible in the top photo).

    The shape near the nose wheel differs slightly from my hull, but Russ assures me that the two can be blended together just fine.
