| This is what I bought | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| T�m�n min� ostin | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Up and below: This is where I started my S-Koala. I'm thirdt owner for this project. As you can see the plane was little more done than basic quiqbuild kits are. From that I made wrong guess to get this soon flying... boy I was wrong with my 500h guess. I bought this kit in 2001 and now 2003 more than 1200 hours later plane is still under construction. Anyways I started with continuing where previous builder was forsed to quit due some illness. First things I made with fuselage. Before I started to build I made countless inquiries and checks about this plane and it's previous phases. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| First things that I build. In picture right I have 170 hours done. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Ensimm�isi� rakentamiani kohtia. Oikeanpuoleisessa kuvassa 170 tuntia tehty. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Here we have almost ready to cover fuselage. Windshield, cowling, harnesses, controls... all set up. Time used 950h. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| L�hes p��llystysvalmis runko. Tuulilasit, kopeitto, vy�t, ohjaimet, kaikki asennettu. Aikaa on kulunut 950h. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Up: One little addition I made is this area for luggage. Some light gargo may end here. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Yl�kuvassa n�kyy tekem�ni "matkatavaratila". Kaippa siihen jotain pient� mahtuu. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 3 pictures on right: I made some modifications to my cowling. Because I'm using VW engine I have no use for that big area for radiator, so I smoothed that away. Additionally I needed some space to fuel pump. Final cowling can be seen in last of those three pictures. It can be split to check engine. Camlocks used all the way. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 3 kuvaa oikealla: Moottoripeitteet kokivat liev�� muodonmuutosta. Koska koneeseen tulee VW moottori ei tuolle Rotaxin j��hdytt�j�n paikalle ole k�ytt�� joten sen kohtaloksi tuli kaatopaikka. Polttoainepumppu tarvitsi hieman lis�tilaa ja sit�h�n j�rjestyi. Alimmassa kuvassa on lopputulos. Koulingin voi avata keskelt� ja se on kiinnitetty kauttaaltaan Camloceilla. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Right and below: This starts to look like an aeroplane. VW engine fits really nice on nose. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Oikealla ja alhaalla: T�m� alkaa jo n�ytt�� lentokoneelta. Volkkarin moottori sopii ihan n�tisti koneen nokalle. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
