Brief Description:  Completed seats

Back from holidays;

We flew up into Australia's Norther Territory, across the top end and then back down through Longreach for 2 week tour with a goup of 3 other aircraft.

Stats are;

Aircraft Zenith Zodiac 601XL (with modified wing and center spar)
Distance flown 4387 nm
Min Speed 94 knots
Max Speed 144 knots
Avg Speed 116 knots
Hours flown 45.4
Fuel 912 liters approx. I still need to work exact fuel burn

After this break, It was nice to start back on the RV, I continued where I left off and cut the holes in the seat back adjustment arms, then etch primed the parts and installed and riveted the hinges.

With this done I disassembled, deburred and etch primed the seat components before riveting both seats together. I am quite pleased with how they have turned out, and its a nice way to ease back into the project.
