Status Update

      Currently the intermediate scale of the cabin model is being worked on, which should be assembled by 4/22. The interior and exterior aspects for the intermediate cabin will be completed by the coming week. The first imitative for the group was build a cardboard model of the smaller cabin as shown in figure 1.This was to see what building issues the group might have when building the models.

Colors for the cabin are still being decided, but are being leaning towards more metallic colors. Like silver, royal blue, and shiny white. Finalizing the seat design is also being established, but a design like in figure 2 and 3 are being considered. Although the seats will be able to fold up and can be manually pushed on to sit in for passengers. Some what like the theater chairs but will have a support from the edge of the seat to the wall to add for support and longer life.
