Hey all.
I posted a couple of weeks ago that I decided to recover my old Hangar 9 easy 2 trainer. I'm keeping an Air Force theme. I've attached on of what it looked like beforerecovering. Four minor crashes and hangar rash, but now it will look new again. Anyway I have the wing done, thanks to MinnFlyer's (my idol) covering videos, it's turning out really well. Only trouble I've had is adding the stripes, getting air bubbles underneath the monkote. For the ones that I can't get to iron out I'm using a sewing needle to pop them and them just iron them out. Can't even tell. Anway here are a couple pf pics of the wing. Covering so far has been a blast. All that's left is the fuselage. I'm giving this plane to my father inlaw when it's completed. He's a former AirForce guy, and wants to learn to fly. By the way, I did not remove the control surfaces to recover.
