A fair bit of
figuring went into getting all the cockpit parts to fit as the seats
seem to me to be about 20% too large. The instructors
glareshield is oversise, I reshaped it on each side so
I could get the canopy to fit flush with the fuselage along the
sides. The BT didn't really have a floor, just foot rails like a
Stearman. The kit has a flat platform for the seats
and I had to reshape it until I could get everything spaced well
enough. There wasn't enough room to get the overturn structure
placed between the student's seat and the instructor's
glareshield so I shortened the aft legs of the structure and fit them on top of the glareshield.
