Hi Peter how is the 1:1 build going, just wanted to give you a quick thankyou for your pictures you took of the build and thought I would show you some work in progress pic's of the nav seat Using a drawing and scaling it to 1/32 to get a size of the seat (height and width) used your pics of seat to get length so its approx Anyway thanks again stay safe. Regards Richard

Thanks very much Peter just what I wanted 👍 Regards Richard

Same here, posted on this couple days ago and it didn't show up here Now it worked in a flash

Was the measurement of 1.3m inside of cockpit back of open windows Peter, if so model is correct On another note could you take a couple of pictures of the underneath of the Nav's seat I would like to see what it looks like so that I can make it. Regards Richard

Have some drawings of formers (frames) but not of A, B, C and D which is a shame, but do have a good drawing of former F and G which are a channels and both are 2 3/4" in width and 5/8" +/- 3/32 legs 20GA thk Alclad material. Regards Richard

Did drill through the side and measured it to be 1.4mm which works out to be 1,7" at those points, this makes the inside frames look small, but the good thing is the outside is very close. But did find the glass canopy a little long Regards Richard

Nice shot of the right side Peter it shows the second frame from the front in the correct place another small item HKM got wrong. Regards Richard

Thanks Nick for stopping by and your nice comment Regards Richard

Hi Steve can you explain "only in a temp box where the cab rear will go" Regards Richard

Hi Steve thanks for looking in and also thank you for the website there are some nice pictures of the machinery inside the coles crane, do you have a the drivers manual and if so where can you get a copy? would be nice to see what the 6V batteries look like and size. Regards Richard

Well put all the pictures back in now have to find time to start back on it, don't think it needs to much work to finish off Regards Richard

RIP Lawrence Goodman

Don't mind at all Ian you had done an excellent job of the refueling Matador it will go well with your Lancaster Regards Richard

Thought I would start putting pictures back into this partial build, still more to put in. Regards Richard

Hi Peter just to be clear this is the vertical panel between the radio opp and the navigator as per picture in post on Feb 25th, not seen a picture yet of the table which will be nice to see. Regards Richard
