I could go down there in the morning and have it done by the time I finish my carnitas and frosty tecate beverage(s) lol |

Yeah, and they'll throw in some pinstriping for free! |

THAT is so nice!!! |

it's a really near air frame. I wonder what it would be like to build a full size one using composite materials and current, state of the art bracing. It would be so light and strong - and fast. I wouldn't change the motor though. |

Absolutely gorgeous, so far. |

yeah - I know..it can all get wrapped around the axle of that friggin' paint scheme - but I do appreciate the appraisals..so far.
I have begun to pencil the patterns onto the airplane. Next I will use a french curve to cut the strips of masking tape to mask the pinstripes. Then she gets the overall red paint. After that I can mask out and paint the black accents. This should create the correct effect overall. |

Sounds like you have it figured out. That is one great job! |

I hope it works, and thanks Don ! |
