Thanks Bill!

Here is the low down on some of the "custom" touches.

  • One of the seats (pilot) was from Czech Aircraft Works when they made Zenith accessories. The other seat is my "tall guy guest" seat from an auto parts store.
  • The stick grips are from "Flight Grips" in Oregon with some custom buttons.
  • The flaps handle is the "Kube Kontrol" from Quality Sports Planes.
  • Grove landing gear with gun-drilled brake lines.
  • Landing lights are PIAA fog lamps from a Jeep.
  • Door frame handles are wrapped in "Rescue Tape" to make them "soft touch"
  • Dashboard and panel are covered in textured "PlastiDip" 
  • Squadron decal was hand-drawn by a friend and printed by VictoryGirl.com
  • Sharks teeth are hand painted by an artist at my office.
  • Headset is a David Clark H10-13X (highly reccomended for Rotax drivers)
  • Fuel selector is a FS20X4M with duel fuel filters and duel gascolators.

John,

Great job on that paint scheme! Looks like you did a terrific job and were very innovative with some of the things you've done like those seats.

If you're ever near the Zenith plant here in Mexico, MO. please look me up.
