Hi! Craig
I have vowed never to get in there again. I was head first in and arms
above my head so to speak and took a really bad chest cramp. With no one
in earshot and no mobile 'phone to hand I was very shaken by the time I
had extricated myself. Very dangerous position to find oneself, any
older builders should get a "heads up" and hire a child or a "height
impaired adult "!
Regards
Bob Harrison G-PTAG

When I was crawling around in the tail of my baby last night i wondered
how hard it would be to mod the baggage bay
to allow one to sleep in there, with the belly board arrangement coming
over the top of the seats between the head rests
far enough to have ones legs towards the rear and lay down properly.
Have any of you done this or looked at it and gave
up.

I can't quite understand your negative waves, Bob.
I have been in there several times and enjoyed every minute.
Still remember last time when I was doing final adjustment after
completing mod. 73 - a wonderful place to work - plenty of room,
fresh air and light so you can se what you are doing.
Don't know, but it seems that as I get older it gets even more fun in
there - other ( post 50 ) builder who have discovered the same thrill,
or am I the only one??
:-)))

You may be in luck. We're just about to move G-GIDY off its cradle
and into a trailer and will be looking to move the cradle on to a
deserving home. It's served us well for several years of our
protracted build. It has castoring / locking wheels and leveling
feet. Aircraft move likely to be in the next couple of weeks. If
you're interested drop me an email off list and I can give you more
details - pics etc if you wish.
Regards

yep-I have a cradle, galvanized steel with jockey wheels at front and castor
at rear. It works well and I am just about to take my aircraft off because
it is finished.
I also have a set of Classic cowls and spinner- unused.

Subject: | Sleeping aboiard |
I have a design for a number of devices about entry into the tail section,
one of which is adapted to a single bed. It requires a tailwheel lifter to
acquire a horizontal state though. I am planning
To revise another bar which could be used to lift the tailwheel securely
for that purpose. The head would then be forward between the 'headrests' and
one could then roll slightly to relieve the usual ennui.
I added a prelim sketch to the Fuselage Album in my Gallery corner. When I
go in headfirst, I crank up the tailwheel to level the 'bed' before entering
- I can't afford the excess blood wasted in my noggin otherwise...

Agreed Gert, I don't know what Bob is going on about either. It is a
really great place to work . . . . I mean, where else can you balance
on one arm while trying to do six things with the other all the time
trying to levitate oneself in order not to damage the floor structure?.
Some people don't seem to enjoy anything in life, do they ?
All in jest Bob and I'll have a load of garden soil too please mate !
