That's very kind of you guys. Thank you all.
To continue...having all parts of the cockpit painted I started "installing" of its "equipment". I attached rudder pedals, then left and right board details.ALso the pilot's seat basis.The stick was added at the end of the build with the pilot's seat together.

I'm glad you like the work THX.
The next step was to give to the pilot's seat better looking. Unfortunately there haven't been seat belts included.Even as the decals. So I had to scratch build them. For the purpose I ate a box of yoghurt for my breakfast.The top-box aluminium foil I washed and dried. Then I cut off a couple of narrow ( 1.5mm) strips for these belts.But I needed a few details more for them.So I used a thin copper wire for making buckles.
I made them bending the wire with my tweezers, a thin drill and needle. Here shots.....

THX Vic.
Then I bended a couple of square buckles using a needle of a square shape in its cross-section.. To make their attaching to these seat belts easier, I shaped areas where these should be sticked with a thin drill. Finally I let buckles sit there and applied a drop af Superglue to each of seatings.
