Hey Sean,

Did you install the interior trim ? If yes how difficult was that ?

Thanks

Nick

Hi Nick

Yes I have the trim fitted, it is really easy. It is supplied with several small brackets which helps attach the trim to the aluminium shell. FDS have thought shell/liner combo out really well.

I have used temporary nuts and bolts to keep the trim in place until I have all the major elements in place (the colour coordinated push-fit fasteners supplied look at bit awkward to remove easily).

I'm expecting my overhead to turn up next week, then I'll tighten the shell up (still only finger tight) but I want to be sure of wiring routes before the trim is fitted properly.

I'll post some pics soon.

An update showing the overhead in place and some of the liners...

Whats the chance of me photographing the roof panels on your sim Sean .... I could print the detail onto sticky back plastic and give my roof panels a more finished look!

blimey! very professional compared to my heath robinson affair, the kit parts Uk or other made? bet they cost mucho £££ did the overhead panel come as is or do you have to add every switch etc yourself?

[Sean Nixon]

It's a mixture of mainly CPFlight, Engravity and FlightDeckSolutions parts. I've invested a few pounds into the sim this last year, but it was the only way I was ever going to end up with a sim at home. I tried the homebuilt route and it just wasn't for me.

The overhead comes in kit form and the whole thing needs to be put together yourself, but that's not difficult. I still have the annunciators to install, then the whole thing needs wired.

This is looking great, Sean. Wish I had the space for this kind of work.

Keep us informed from time to time (love to drool).
