Arash-
How are you going to get that thing out of the house without cutting a hole in the wall?

The hardest part will be getting that non-TSO'd altimeter to pass a static check.

Beautiful!
Headliner bows installed...check. Will you be using rotary latches for your doors?
Something that I can't believe is that you can keep your work area so clean during a build. Try as I might, 3/4 of my workshop will invariably get pulled out to do the smallest thing. I know your wife appreciates it!

Re: 27% 170B build
So let me see if I understand you right. YOUR WIFE says you can build on your dining room table and you have a Hangar for your 170? You are allowed to model build in your house and not make your 170 dusty? Does your wife have any single sisters? I want one....LOLAryana wrote:Being that this whole plane was built on our dining room table, part of the deal with my wife is that the work area stays as clean as possible!
I couldn't scale down the door latches, so I am going with a simpler design. Only the brass lever will be visible on the outside of the door.

As for authenticity....You're BUSTED, Aryana!
The little square inst hole in the center is for a magnetic compass ...not CARB TEMP!
Thought you'd put one over on us, heh?
(And the little bracket in the center is for the correction card.)
