Happy New Year fellow pitbuilders! I haven’t updated the site in a while, so I figured it was time to do a full status update. Rudders, we are debating between designing our own or just using the MFG Crosswinds. As always, please check out our Discord server, available from the link up top!

Feel free to comment with any questions on it!  On the structures side, left and right consoles are virtually done, lower instrument panel is 95% and about to start work on the upper instrument panel and the seat.
