Pietenpol-List: shoulder harnesses, seat belts, & engine mount

Post by matronics »

Original Posted By: "Christian Bobka"
My partner and I have taken over a GN-1 project with a steel tubingfuselage and would like ideas on how to attach shoulder harnesses & seatbelts for both the front and rear seats. Diagrams or photos would bemost helpful, if anyone has any they would be willing to share. Alsowould like to get an idea of the distance that might be necessary forproper weight & balance in the engine mount between the firewall and theengine. Our engine is a C-85 with an electric start and generator. Wealready have a J-3 engine mount with a distance of about 9 inches, butcan acquire one from EAPS (formerly Replicraft) with a distance of 13"or 14".
