James,
Actually I was being fascetious as hell. More later.
Thank you for the plan to live inside the @#$%
fuselage. I
remember Tony k commenting on the extreme discomfort. My comment produced a
bright idea from one of the guys who filled a couple of doubled trash bags
with those expanded worms they use for shipping, and then laid a cushion
over top - giving great comfort - so will ape that.
My original response was a snotty attempt at humour - drawing
the difference between lie-lay-lain and lay-laid-laid, grammar that seems to
escaped most in the last twenty years. Perhaps a second scan of the message
might amuse.......
Perhaps not.
Guilty as charged.
Ferg
PS Thanks for the trouble..............

| Ferg,
| Actually I think he is talking about a 2 x 4 across the fuselage
| (side to side). I did the same but used a 1 x 4 on each side. Then a 1
| x 12 as the belly board to slide in and out. Yes I had to do it several
| times so be prepared. Also, do EVERYTHING you can possible do BEFORE
| you put the top on. It makes things so much easier. Do all the wiring
| and anything else. Then put the top on.
