soundproof, made from aluminium foil

To get smooth contures, a tissue was glued above the sheet structure.
42
December 28, 2012
after the wood glue dried out, I got a authentic looking surface.
43
December 28, 2012
Now the selfmade noise reduction was glued in place.
44

After everything dried out, I'll have to cut out the windows carefully.

The cabin ceiling with markings for the missing lashing points

drilled the holes, cut them out and this is how it could look later.

Thanks! I really need motivation for that project. Next big step will be the noise reduction/fairing inside the cabin. I'm afraid. lol

I love holidays. 🙂 Finally did some steps with the interior that I've been afraid of for a long time. 🙂

I'll follow this one, looking forward to see the result. Good idea to use the bubble windows from the MH-47E

Thanx Luc; I'd rather like to have vacu-formed bubble windows, but at the moment it looks like I'm going with the ones from the kit and the Chinook-parts.
Nice to have you "on board" !
