After a very long pause (hospital Aug 7 to Sept 10) to deal with covid and a stroke the first morning I was hospitalized, resulting in getting a pacemaker, I got back to work on the BT-13 today. Mostly smoothing the finish. Went through the last couple of months Postings and saw some really nice work. Probably wil be a slow start. |

Looking very good Don! That lighter "cockpit green" is very much like the UK cockpit green. |

Had to remove the rear cockpit instrument panel, but everything fits. Next move is to figure out how to put the instrument panels in - the interior has to go in first. but it's going to be, shall we say, interesting. |

Here's the real frame being rebuilt. |

The real one is welded steel tubing, but by a much better welder. I didn't file down the plastic cement because it did look welded. It is a sloppy welding job though.

Looks like its coming along well. Tubing looks like its welded, was that intentional or did it just turn out that way? |
