You know what I’m like with all these DIY plane enthusiasts. Well now we seem to have gone a step further – somebody has bought themselves an existing aeroplane and decided to fit it out in order to make it habitable.

You’re also more than welcome to go and take a tour so long as you give advance warning and take this advice to heart :

The aircraft is in its final position, but the landing gear are resting on temporary platforms. Be careful around the left main gear platform, which is the least stable. The wings, although not yet welded, are securely attached to the fuselage and are reasonably safe. For the time being, there are railroad tie towers below (but not touching) the left wing, and they should be avoided or negotiated with caution. The interior is a bit hazardous in some areas due to a few missing floor panels, so watch your step at all times. You’re welcome to stop by for a tour so long as you read, understand and agree to the safety information and disclaimer as follows. Unless we’re already well acquainted, be sure to contact me to arrange a time before paying a visit. Bring a pair of scrupulously clean slippers, or be prepared to walk in your socks – the aircraft is clean inside, and must be kept that way. Otherwise casual or destitute rural class clothing is best.

Please go and take a look round the chap’s site as it’s chock-full of pictures, information and requests for cockpit bits.
