Spraying White on the Fuselage

Posted on December 9, 2012September 11, 2013 by Jared Yates

This afternoon my Mom was in town, so we all came out to the hangar to get a few things done. They helped me move the fuselage into the paint booth. I later learned to put wheels on the front wood pieces, but back then it was still a three person job. After they left, I sprayed the white paint on the fuselage and one of the struts, and also did a little bit of touch up on th the elevator trim pushrod and main landing gear where I had missed some spots. I painted the bottom of the fuselage, the white stripes on the vertical stab, and most of the sides of the fuselage. My usual back-taping strategy was too complicated on the fuselage sides, in part because of the registration numbers and in part because of the horizontal stripes.
