Pascal,

  Just found your latest Corsair build. The cockpit is looking exceptional. Your seat really has just the right about of wear and tear. And thanks for the mini photo tutorial on how to assemble those seatbelts & harness.

thanks everybody !  :beer4:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thank you for taking time to document the belts, I just got two sets in the mail today.

What did you use for glue? They say not to use CA or white glue...

 

 

I I stuck with the cyanoacrylate, a little little drop , but you can  stick also with white glue no problem 

 

 

 

next step  :D

Pascal,

  Another excellent update. Your seat with those belts and harness is simply outstanding. Just the right amount of weathering, and the coffee staining is somthing I've got to try, as i drink coffee all day long, every day no matter how hot it is outside. Inside is never hotter then 72.

 

  The cockpit as a whole just has that special look to it. Not overly weathered, but certainly has a used look.

tank you Joel !!

 

I am a big drinker of coffee  a cup never very far from the works and there is always a light bottom in the cup what my given the idea..And to make a wash for harnesses in textile is great give a dirty tint without highly-rated fat of a normal wash   :mental:

 

next update for to day  

 

Close both openings not present on the US versions with some putty

The advantage of this putty it smooths it has the water and or it sands very well also
