Thanks for the update. Quite the amazing project.

Weezie will be putting a July update on the XP website soon I am sure. I haven't been to Douglas lately, but understand the wing center section is on the fixture. I have been working on the artwork for the the lower instrument sections. We are working with Ian at Ad Astra Masks to get the lines and text recreated.

 

 

Tom had all the drawings for these panels, but the actual panels were somewhat different. We are trying to recreate what is on the panels that came from the plane. Once we get the masks made I will be making another trip.....
