Took a fair bit of effort to get em in but all up probably around 10 hours spent on getting it in.

Very nice bomber. Were they just a bolt in job or did you need to make some modifications?

Needs a fair bit of modification its running the standard BA rails hence electrics and the AU mount pionts are welded to the bottom of the BA rails.

Yeah, that does sound like a fair bit of work. When you're done, you should write a tech document on it. I'm sure there are many who wouldn't mind putting BA seats in their AU.
