I just wonder how it will look after decaling. Hopefully good! (This dam model is too friggin BIG! I keep hitting the lamps on my work table. Lucky that I haven't broken something. Fingers crossed.) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you use the Master pitot, watch out you don't stab yourself. Ask me how I know. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had put it in place it would have been broken off half a dozen times at least! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Peter. That paint peeling "adventure" nearly got it put on the SOD! It looks like it's over the hump now so I plan to start decaling today. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocRob Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Good you saved the Starfighter John. With the new paintjob it looks marvelous with that shiny aluminum finish. Can't wait to see it fully decaled. Cheers Rob 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
