Very nice ! I see you opted to cut and deepen the cockpit area , I have been considering a full cockpit but its at the very threashold of having enough room or not , not sure if I want to open up a can of worms ....but the cool factor would so be there ! I'm on the fence . LOL .....I was a little stumped as far as what to do about the tail wheel on mine , don't really want it to be retractable but I would like to put something in a little more scale looking then the wire they provide you with , any ideas or more pic of yours might be of some help and or inspire me , please share
Thanks for the kind words -322. I wanted enough cockpit so that it appeared, at least from a distance, that there was a cockpit in there. I don't like it when all you can fit in there is the pilot from the shoulders up!
The tailwheel retract is simply the Robart .60 size unit. Not real scale but it fits my intentions for this project and was easy to install. It's not shown in the pic but I made a new fiberglass hatch to go around the tailwheel opening as well since the supplied one was a really lousy fit. This is the only other pic of the t.w. that I have at the moment.
