An egg on a stick! Did allot of training with these guys. Try cramming one or two in the back of a C-130! Use to have to be on your toes on a FARRP, skids are short!! Great tough little bird.

A little more progress, here is the part of the bench seats that runs through the airframe. I'm modelling this on the images posted by Justin McCracken on Aeroscale.

Operator bench seats almost complete. I still need to add attachment hinges, hand hold straps and non slip texture on the top side. I'm planning to use Games Workshop texture paint for this.
