Remember the flying sub in “Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea”?  I have always loved lightening holes in aircraft, and now they will be a visible part of Seeker.

It took the better part of two days but we got one of ten frames cut for the cargo hold.   It was not one of our better weekends.  Getting a hole cutter best suited for sheet rock to cut through 3/16″ aluminum took lot of skill and patience from Doug Stout.   And we had more that our fair share of do-overs on patterns for the frames themselves.  And the heat in the hull finally drove us out.  We’re looking forward to more cool weather.
