Post by aus140 »

As I have just joined and am asking for help ,I thought I would post a couple pics ,this started out as a good idea and cheap, that was 2 years ago ,as with any 70 year old aircraft there are always issues, some I knew about others were surprises ,so far I have cleaned out the bitumen and asbestos coating behind the instrument panel, replaced forward landing gear bulkhead ,roof ,rear carry through spar and rear fuselage skin painted the fuselage and a thousand other things and am finally getting closer to the end
