Interior installed!!

Post by cjensen »

Man, I am in love with my interior! Kind of a pain in the a$$ to install, but I'm REALLY happy with it! It's not completely done, but I got the side panels installed tonight, and just set everything else in place to weigh tomorrow...

The interior is really sharp! :) :) I also like your weight but I will be real interested in how much it weighs after painitng. :bang: We had a Young Eagles Rally at Little Falls, MN (LXL). The DAR, a guy who striped off three coats of paint on his Cherokee and I. The DAR estimated the paint could have wieghed as much 70 to 80 lbs. I am really interested in how much it gains!

It's nicely positioned until full flaps...not bad, but it's not the easiest way to move my arm to select.

Yeah, I'll be well over 1,050 after paint, but my goal was pre-paint. Won't know for a while...paint isn't in the budget any time soon...

All this talk about weight and how nice it looks, makes me think the plane is sitting there the whole time wondering: :headscratch:

do these red belts look ok? or does it make my wheel pants look fat? :mrgreen:
