Interior - Check!

 We've been drawing close to the end of the CMA project rebuild.  Pretty much the final installations are the headliner and the remaining plastic interior pieces, both of which are brand new.  We had the headliner installed on Monday of this week and we finished up the plastics yesterday.  Then we went to have the airplane weighed.  Sorry!  I totally forgot to take my camera with me when we went for weighing.  Oh, well.  Enjoy the pictures of some final assembly. 

 This is the fundi (worker/technician/specialist/etc) from Sai Cushion, where we purchased the headliner.  It is custom made for a Cessna 206, with a few things that we request.  This guy had the thing installed in just a couple hours. 
 And it looked great! 
 We have some special zipper sections so we can access certain things, like the flap and aileron cables (the long lateral zipper), the fuel quantity transmitters (the smiley shaped zipper), and one of the radio antennae (the short lateral zipper). 
 Crew seats installed for weighing.  Also notice that the upper plastics have been installed, including the speaker/light pieces above the crew heads. 
Crew seats.  We use the JAARS seatbelt attach points, which also give a cargo button for cargo tie down options.  
 Caleb finishing the rear access panel.  Notice the anti-skid on the floor. 
 Pilot side, rear cabin. 
Rear cabin area.  The tie downs on either side of the middle window are for the rear seatbelts.  They also have the cargo button for cargo tie down configuration.  You can also see the orange ELT in the back and part of the HF just below the ELT.
