So now on to the Sonar operators station......
Done the box for the transducer cable reel.....

the seat and back are only the start!!!!

Ah, but Karl reckons it should be on its side, with its legs in the air - cos it's his real favourite wind beater !!!

why is there not a "this is not funny button ?"

looks great Bill

 

[Gnomey]

I got a bit sidetracked, with the interior again.
Removed the ducting from the interior sidewalls,
since I'm going to pad the walls,
and attached them to the overhead piece, since the ducts will be visible above the padding.
The padding is a quilted sound proofing blanket to lessen the noise for the Sonar operators.
It will all come clear. I did padding on the SH-3A for an earlier GB.

Good stuff Bill

 

[Wayne Little]

like it Bill.

 

[N4521U]

Thanks guys, there is more.

The mesh PE didn't fit very well;

So I enlarged the recessed area for the mesh to fit.

The opening does Not span both doors, there is sheet metal at the end. So I stuck a piece of
styrene across the opening..........

Then shaped it's profile to the door.
Much better. I'll recess that too.
