The combined harness has been added, with its 'quilted' back pad, made from the foil off my pain killers (!) and lead wire, and is now painted and the seat installed in the cockpit.
Boy, was that fiddly! The foil for some reason decided to be more springy than a springy thing on a spring day in a spring factory!
PICS 1 and 2 show the seat with the harness painted, and awaiting touch up. The paint was still wet when these pics were taken, and the 'quilted' back pad is only just visible here. (the darker brown area).
PICS 3 and 4. The completed seat installed in the cockpit. There's some paint wear due to handling, and this will be re-touched once the model is finished, and the head guard/ arming device has been added, in the 'Up' position. Note also that the port side screen for the armoured glass has yet to be added - another fiddly job to look forward to!
Thanks again for your support and interest, and I hope to have some more pics late on Sunday (away Saturday at Cockpit Fest - whoopee!).
