    You must see that differently Sean. They're based in one of those beautiful historical industrial estates which you only see in the UK

    Like this one...



    Disclaimer: those are not the same garage doors as the previous post

    Actually, I was surprised to see they are made in the UK.

    Boeing Update : The seat with pillows KLM077 PH-BGD New Seat and Tiller

    Now almost ready to fly, with the pillows.
    I borrowed a sewing machine and spend one week (every evening) to do the job.
    For sure a sewing professional can do it in a fraction of this time

    Maybe i arrange some seat belts to make the chair complete.
    And the arm rests have to be upholstered also i think...or am i'm goi'n to far

    They look really great. Any chance of bringing them out in bouwpakket form?

    Re: Update : The seat with pillows KLM077 PH-BGD New Seat and Tiller

    Hi Capetonian,

    Thanks for the feedback on the "Seat project".
    Wel i don't have the room to make the seat as a kit in a larger number.
    I spend almost three weeks in a workshop in the backyard of a friend of mine.
    However if you have the intention to spend many hours building
    a seat I can provide you with the information to help you.

    Cheers
    Bas

    Re: Update : The seat with pillows KLM077 PH-BGD New Seat and Tiller

    Very nice Bas. These look like they're made from the standard seat plans available on the net (and here at Mycockpit I think?), but a damn nice representation though. How are you hinging and holding the armrests in the down position? Also I see they're on castors, do you intend running them in channels and locking them into place etc.?
