Good morning all. Steady progress on the South African Skybolt!
I would really appreciate some help on possibly doing a removable turtle deck. I would like to make it stringer and fabric covered with inner ply skin and a ply floor.
But how to attach it to the plane so it can be removed for inspection and maintenance of control linkage? I attach typical cross section.
Many thanks, Jan.
