Mike,
You can see pics of the complete factory interior kit in synthetic (not leather)
on my build web site. I am not trying to install it myself as I am hopeless
with any cloth that doesn't require epoxy. I have a professional interior guy
(his full-time job is custom interior work on biz-jets) doing the installation.
It is coming out pretty nice, but if I were going to do it again, I think
that I'd save the time and weight and just paint the interior with something
like Zolatone. Then add just some real nice seats from someone like Oregon Aero.
Just my 2 cents worth. Your mileage certainly will vary.
Good building and great flying,
Bob Borger

Europaphiles,
Sorry about the multiple posts. Windows OS doesn't seem to play well with my e-mail
service. Hit the send, get multiple error messages, so try again with the
same result. Finally find out that the message was sent, a couple times, for
each try. AAARRRRGGGGHHH!

Mike,
I would suggest to get the Interior kit from Europa (they have it also in
leather) and look for a local guy, who could do it for you.
My upholstery was made by www.europa-aircraft.cz
<http://www.europa-aircraft.cz/> . Including material (velour) they do it
for about 1.100 GBP.
I gave them some leather and Alcantara, saved some money but got it to my
liking.
They need to do it by a Profi within one month.
But I guess Vlasim - 60 km south-east of Prague - will be too far away from
your location.
All the best,
Bruno

Mike,
You might check out matronics photoshare for Justin Kennedy's narrative
& pixs...I've used them as a guide...pretty straightforward...though
I've yet to have my covers sewn which I'll have done at a local boat
cushion shop.

I am happy to give Matthew a plug too. He made a good job of my
aeroplane
and fitted it for me as well. Very good value for money.

I had mine re-upholstered by Matt Leach. I'm 98% delighted with the
result.
In my view it was worth, a) paying the extra for leather (looks great
and hasn't been uncomfortable on hot days), and b) paying Matt to fit
it (I've seen some DIY efforts which are sort of OK but Matt is a pro
who has done dozens of them and he doesn't charge too much), and, c)
getting the sculpted seat backs from him.
Shame he doesn't do stick boots as well but the ones from Tim Ward in
NZ are excellent.
If you get Matt to supply and fit you'll have to take the a/c to
Perranporth and scrounge some space in a hanger for a couple of days.
