This weekend I got a lot of work done, huge clean up in the hanger getting ready for the big flying next weekend. Also the fuse was painted (A big thanks to Simon), next is to paint some flooring and some side panels, “I hate paint ” IT SUCKS.

Big thanks to Simon for splashing some paint on, what a great job he does. I can tell you from the prep side its a lot of work, i have spent hours prepping all of the parts, only got a few painted today do to another job he has, so i just fit in where i can and as its just primer, it works in well.
Piss poor prep , is piss poor finish. worth the time spent

Yesterday, a trip to Wagga to buy some paint to prime the whole plane
a week of sanding then paint is on the card very soon.
Photos soon when we start painting

With most of the work done, there is only some rivets to shoot
and its all finished. Both left and right fronts have now been done.

Not happy with the original fit, it was remake and redrill the
No4, Happy now!!! all there is to do, rivit it back in.

Right wing just getting outboard fuel tanks sealed up and its all go for paint,
