Default airplane noises

OK, after this weekend, there are going to be many airplane noises coming out of my shop. Classic aero sportsman seat, carpet and armrests. Got an extra yard of black ultraleather and rolled my own side panels using 3/16" foam board from a craft store.
Control sticks by an RV builder that used to work for CH products (a computer joystick company) and makes RV control sticks.
There's my daughter, all ready to fly







Ahhhh, can't wait to finish. I can almost taste it.

You've got a beautiful future pilot at the controls.

Default Lookeeng gooood, mahn ...

Looks great, Phil. Your plane looks pretty good too. ;o) Wifey and I went bug smashing in a club 172 today and we ran into a friend of mine (figuratively speaking. of course) who had his first flight one week ago today. He has 10 hrs on his 7A already and was enjoying our CAVU conditions today just like we were ... though for understandable reasons his aviating "high" was just a tad higher than ours. Hope you're airborne soon.

Looks great Phil! Nice job on the interior, panel and the side panels! I see the location of your future gooseneck map lights too!

Really cute pic of your little co-pilot too!

Cheers,
Bob
