Jody and I went into the shop to day to do a few things on the flying machine. Jody started cutting the fabric for the wings while I was able to draw up the seat backs in Aspire.
The fabric is very specific. It is the same fabric that is being used in the inventors house, and needs to be incorporated into the plane. While she was cutting all the fabric, I was able to stand around and watch our Techno cnc cut the seat backs for no other reason than it's cool!
Being that the camera will never be close enough, or high enough to see into the cockpit, we don't actually need seats, just the backs. I carried the seat backs all the way down to the bottom frame so the camera wasn't limited on it's crane shot. One of the script requests was that it be VERY evident that there are TWO seats in this. This is why we raised the rear seat up higher than the front one. A small, but important detail nonetheless.
As I couldn't handle anymore edge-banding for this year, I cut the seat backs from 1/2" MDF and just applied the same stain. It works very well and doesn't appear much different than the rest of the plane.
