I really do like the size of my 86" Aeromacchi, but I never thought that it would require so many sheets of rivets to cover the darned thing!! 7-1/2 sheets of rivets and 2 sheets of screws, and I still don't have enough to finish this stupid airplane!!!!!
I have finally resigned to the fact that it is going to have to remain rivet-less on the bottom if I am going to have it ready for Florida Jets. The good news is that I can shoot clear on it tomorrow, it will be ready to fly in Bunnell, and I can finally forget about rubbing those endless lines of little dots onto this monster! One more sheet of rivets and I will go cross-eyed!!!

I'll post pics next week after the clear is on it.
