The late Graham Lee of CIRCA envisaged the R2800 to be set backward of the firewall encasing the accessories in a recess within the firewall. When done the aesthetic of the aircraft should change to greater authenticity.

Construction work done by Barry was towards obtaining this objective. The basic frame of the plane along with the wings is complete.

With the firewall position in place Rotec was asked to design a mounting frame to Barry's specifications. Click on the "thumbnails" to see the drawings in pdf format:

Looking ahead with great interest and some excitement on how this works out.
