Guys,
Spent some great time this afternoon with my daughter, Christine and her two daughters. The goal was to get her comfortable with the Lynx. Started off with the old Dodge Power Wagon and two critics, in my neighbour farmer's fields, and then graduated to some nice cross country travel with the Lynx. I suspect that there have not been many women at the helm of a 1944 Lynx. Peter pic.jpg pic2.jpg pic3.jpg https://youtu.be/7mRu9feYQb8 |

That’s fantastic. You are creating wonderful memories for all involved and hopefully carrying on the interest in the next generation

Hi Pete,
Your gunners seat is probably a bit more comfortable than the one in mine. KVE Corowa2014 013.JPG Keep up the good work, Rick.

Rick/David,
My understanding of the Observers/Gunners seat is that it went through several evolutions during the development of the the Lynx. The seat that you have Rick is the first version and the second drawing is of the later version. I was able to replicate the raising/lower mechanism, but the seat base pan and back was too much of a challenge. I elected to use the Driver's seat which uses a conventional CMP seat mounted on a unique raising/lowering mechanism as a model for my Observers/Gunners seat. Peter ob seat1 (2).jpg obseat2 (2).jpg |
