Default RE: backrest question for hog bipe

I used the plastic one. Tried painting it but looked terrible so I just covered it with monokote. I cut the monokote from the bottom edge of the headrest and epoxied it onto the fusalage.

Then I put small rubber black tubing up around the front of the headrest (the upsidedown U area) and along the inside rim area of the cockpit and cemented that on with RC 56 glue. Holds great.

I didn't use the flimsy plastic windshield at all.

My pilot Lulu is starting to look a little rough but she gets the job done. If you been through all the abuse I have put Lulu through, you'd look a little rough too! My camera makes the colors look awful when I take pictures inside!

Opps...mine isn't the hog bipe!
