Shea N340XL

Pat Shea XL/RG

This plane was lost/completely destroyed in a off-airport forced landing (apparent engine failure in bad weather) on June 27, 2023 in Tahlequah, OK. It appears (I haven't been able to 100% confirm the tail number, but the location was close) that this same airplane landed off airport a day or two previous. Flight Aware track.

  N340XL Instrument Panel

• 

  I used 3/8" blue foam covered w/ bid on each side to fabricate the these interior panels. They provide for a baggage area while covering the gear mechanism and other system components. Once upholstered & soundproofed, they will be held in place by velcro for easy removal in flight if necessary.

  These perimeter tabs, along w/ the 3' wide aluminum bracket in front of the sump tank, are used to mount the aft interior panels.
