These here are recent pictures taken on Feb. 21, 2004. I've taken some time from working on the main panels so that I can get the throttles done. Of all throttles found on the boeings, this type is the one I like the most. I started out by going over the pedestial photos at www.simpit.de . I then cut out the basic shapes from cardboard to get a better idea of what I would be doing. It was alot easier to visualize the parts this way. So far I have used 1/4" and 1/2" birch along with some clear acrylic plastic. The result so far looks good to me. I've given the parts a quick coat of paint before I move on to the next step......figuring out how to make a set of reverse thrust levers that will actually function. |
