Very homey. Needs drapes! |

Thank you Biplane. Didn't consider the fuselage taper. Very good. |

No, the tubes run parallel to the stringers. Since they terminate at the aft end of the formers and flush with the fuselage sides the tapered shape of the fuselage allows the cables to exit the covering without touching it. The cables run in a straight line from the stick and rudder pedals without touching anything until they reach the guide tubes so there seems to be very little friction. |

Looks really great, Biplane. Lots of attention to detail. Are the tubes angled outward? |

Very good attention to detail. I especially liked the glass gauge and bezels around the instruments. Very good pilot's seat and attention to the rigging around the cockpit. |

Excellent - I look forward to the next stages. |

Yes, I sure hope so. None of the control wires are connected at the rear but I see no major problems, yet. It looks as though I'll have more movement of the control surfaces with this design than what I had with the PT-17. |

I love this excellent work - will the control surfaces respond to the movement of stick & rudder pedals? Or is that asking too much! |

This is great, Biplane. You've done some amazine work, and this is just the beginning. |

Good choice, Nieuport II in good hands. |

Delightful! |

The aileron pushrods will connect to the crimp eyes hanging from the metal clevises. |
