Does anyone have a photo of the cabin framework taken from above, looking down into the cabin of a model IV or newer? It's time for some additional mods and for one mod it would help to see this view.

Yes! Thank you both. I know I'm asking for a lot here, but now my A&P wants any 3 or 4 of the measurements: Red, Yellow, Green, White. All 4 would be more than great. Any 3 will work. What I'm trying to accomplish is to update the cabin frame on a model I to the newer design which allows for greater headroom for 2 people. I can extrapolate the correct info for the model I with 3 or 4 of the measurements.

Green 6 3/8"
White 9"
Yellow 11.5"
Red 33.5". Measured from where your arrows end. Not the entire width of that tube.

Hey Steve Not sure if your interested but this is what I did on my model 1 to make it a bit stronger, little bit less welding, drilled out the pin holders, slid a .035 tube inside then welded new pin holders back in, super easy to do, also changed that same over head tube your talking about,
