Finally got some work done on the fusalage. Back wall completed. Side ribs made and being painted as I type (well nearly...).

The two holes beside the pilot's head have the rear speakers for the 5.1 surrouond. Also stuck a fake circuit breaker box and laser resonator (whatever that is - just made it up) on 'cause the wall looked very empty. Will run a few pipes around as well.

Once the side ribs are painted they'll be skinned with ply same as the back.

Cheers,

Andy

Its looking great! Looks like you have some major electronics stuffed in your office, too.
Thanks for posting the update picture.

What does the front look like?

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the comments. Here's a picture of the front at present. All switches, indicators and MDFs work in conjunction with SIOC and EECH.

Eventually the whole thing will be enclosed with a door on the side (right side console hinges back for easy ingress).

Front will have a screen with back projection of external view from EECH.

I'm actually building it in my loft. That's my room in the house. You think there's a lot of gear in here, you should see my workshop .......

Wow, that is very nice!

The boy is in dire need of a Swiffer though.

Looks great Andy. Is great seeing something come together, that you have planned out yourself.
