Aircraft Facelift Project
Text Box: Thank you, Gordon. You shortened my trip by 24 hours, allowing me to continue the moving process in which my wife and I are involved during this week. Weather, particularly winds, was hard on you as a pilot. You proved to be a good one! In Him, Mario Zani

The painting project got under way on schedule in December and as you can see it is well along.

We found that there were up to five coats of paint in some places which had to be removed.  This was more work  than we had anticipated but volunteers from Heartland Community Church in Overland Park, KS came forth and helped get the rest of the paint off.

This has allowed a detailed inspection of the fuselage.  Some minor cracks were found and are now being repaired.
