I just saw Pacific Scientific's .pdf price list.
I need the seat belts just to keep from falling out of my chair after seeing the prices. :shock:
$2085.00 for a dual-reel and harness. Only aound $680 if all you want is a lap belt. Probably a passenger seat at that. There wasn't much description with the part numbers.
Sure glad a guy like Nick is around. When I see prices like those it makes me appreciate his business all that much more.
I won't even get into Korry indicator pricing. Suffice it to say I'm extremely fortunate that every Korry or Eaton switch or indicator aboard my sim is real.
Crazy hey, When you see prices like that it just makes you appreciate the guys even more who offer great products at great prices.

Nick is selling the five-point for $50 that includes the lap and crotch belts with the five point buckle right out of a 727 he's logged time in with American.
He logged over 1,000 hours in the aircraft my control wheel came from.
Nice to have some history with the parts you buy. That's hard to come by with FDS or anyone else's aftermarket stuff.
Some arm rest work.
Paint is wrinkle finish. Arm pads are just 1/4" closed-cell foam on 1/4" MFD covered with vinyl.

Sorry for the blurries...too much coffee this morning all ready.
Usually got the shakes when I don't get enough coffee :)
Looks fabulous!!!!!!! :) :) :)
That seat is outstanding!
Nick at APHS sent the wrong reel retractor/harness assembly. The biuckles will not mate to the five point harness buckle so he told me to send it back.
As a bonus though, he's sending out another reel retractor/harness with black belts AND the five-point harness all together.
The new one was sent today and I shipped the other one back. I do wish they would have been gray belts, but I guess it will be a good contrast with the gray seat material.

Nice Seat There!
Got the cushions taken care of tonight. The material a very thin Rayon that is attached with 3M 77 spray adhesive. I hope the upholstery material is thick enough to cover the imperfections in my foam cutting abilities.
