plasticbuddha | 15-Aug-07 19:01 | I noticed from the refernce photos that the faceplate of the instrument panel is hinged on the bottom and has catches on the top. I would imagine that this was to facilitate the replacement/servicing of flight instruments as needed. I tried to replicate the hinge by wrapping some wine bottle foil around a lenght of .010 dia. piano wire. I tightened the wrapping using an edge of my steel ruler and on a piece of glass. I then crimped the "separations" using a pair of flush cutters. Sorry about the blurred pics again (old autofocus digital) |
