LOL! You guys give me to much credit, or are getting senile. All the clear coat is done, finished, complete, and I will post pics in an hour or so once the room and plane has aired out.

No, you don't give YOURSELF enough credit, or are getting senile. Have you seen the crap we build?

Na, you deserve the credit Robert.
BTW Mike is the one getting senile. And Steve is a little young for that, so still looking for an excuse. I'm just getting better looking
Helps a lot to cover over all the mirrors.

Sorry buddy but the devil had nothing to do with it. He has no need to interfere, we can be wicked just fine without him.

We'll Robert, it was a hot rod finish you were after, and you got it. That looks ridiculously great. Just amazing. Your right, my sea fury came out good, but no where near the level of craftsmanship as you have. And I know, that comes with experience, which you have a lot more of than me. I can only hope that when I have been at it as long as you, that I can build like that. Mmmm, someday.

Not much time to work on the Pitts with the returning home chores. But I have managed to get a few things done. All the fuse panel screws are in, the tail wheel is on, and the stabs along with their flying wires.

"But sweetie, I AM doing chores. I had to put these screws and flying wires away."
