Work Update 29 Jan '26

I don't have a great deal to share this week, work continues on clean up and prep insides the cockpit. Last week's liberal application of penetrating oil has paid off as we do now have some movement of the previously rock solid elevator controls - from the pivot in the cockpit floor right back to the control tubes at the rear of the cockpit section.  I still need to take things apart to clean, lube and probably replace some moving parts, but it's good to know things are basically intact.

There's a very dull but short video on youtube showing things moving!

I also took a closer look at the windscreen frame as I've been offered a set of 'new old stock' glazing. The frame needs stripping and painting so I'll be looking to move forward with that sooner than originally planned.
