    Yep 90 90. 90% done and 90% to go. I am going to start installing the motor and start on the panel now. Once the fuse is done then I'll bring the wings in from the hanger and finish that up. Like you say just keep going and going and going.

    Norm...

    I suppose better crew coordination would be in order...a bit more explanation...its in the New Photo Gallery on the KF Website.

    Here you go... N851BH - Not everyone's preference but one that I fancy...

    Good progress Norm. Love that colour. I may be able to see your first flight all the way from Phoenix with that paint.
    Keep after it Norm.

    It looks very nice Norm - are you going to keep it all yellow? I think that would be cool. enjoying the progress reports.

    That's the idea Steve. I usually fly with a group of guys and I want to make sure I am as visable as possible. Plus I have always wanted a Yellow Bird. I opened the doors on the shop yesterday and It was great in the sun.
    I would love to see it in the Arizona sun. Maybe.

    I was going to contrast with black and a bit of silver but my grandaughters have asked me to go with purple and aqua as trim. Of course grandaughters trump Grandpas every time. It will be some time before I get to that stage because I am moving on to engine install for a few days. (Weeks, or Months)
    As soon as I get more colour on I will post the trim pictures.

    Steve I never realized how close the color was to your plane. I was flipping through some pics on my computer and was surpized at how close the two colors are. I put a little more orange in mine hoping it would pop. I smile every time I open the door to the garage and see the bright sun colored airplane.

    Norm, your flying buddies will love that color. They will never lose track of you on a cross country trip.

    What brand of paint are you using?
