Painting still in progress


Well The plane was suppose to be done on the 3rd and it wasn't.  Several things came up that delayed the completion.  I took a week off of work to go pick  it up, have a friend work on it, fly some friends around and then fly home.  Unfortunately it was still not done that Sunday, so my friend Mike. and his girlfriend Christine, offered to drive down to Medford to get me.  In case you do not know, it is a 5 hour drive each way.  They are good friends.
So it is now the 14th of March and it is still not done.  I got some pictures of the plane painted with out the clearcoat, 2 days ago and you can see them here.  The tail design looks exceptional.  I really love how this came out.  While I was in Medford for a week waiting on the paint I had the
opportunity to spend some time in the paint show working out the designs and lines for the paint.  I am glad this happened as it is more what I wanted because of the delay.



Yesterday I got a few pics of parts with the clearcoat on.  They look much more finished.  Really spectacular really.  I am including those pictures here as well.  It is turning out really great.  I am hoping that I will be able to get it tomorrow.  We shall see.
