Sorry for hi jacking your thread but I thought it will be a good idea to share ideas. If you dont want this please feel free to delete.
Ok, so I haven't found anything yet and decided to go ahead and make my own stuff with scraps of balsa and whatever I can find in my workshop.The problem is to keep the weight down.
I made 2 seats by gluing some thin balsa together. I used a picture from the internet that didn't look to complicated. I know it is not very scale but the next guy won't know, I hope.
I am planning to make "running boards of balsa as well. Will post a pic as soon as I painted them. Then is on to the instrument panel. I am going basic, Like the old planes. I still need to cut the seat belt slots and make those pesky belts.
