It does Richard, and my interpretation of that is midnight on Tuesday night. Just posting a heads up.

Rounding the corner and heading for home. Clear coating, registration numbers and glazing left to do.

I have all of the painting done on the Stearman, but I still have to do all of the rigging. It's going to be very close if I get it done at all.

Any chance of extending this for a week to allow the stragglers to finish up their last few items. Sadly, I ended up spending too many days working overtime (work had a big implementation but we are done now) instead of at the workbench so still have some final finish work to do on my Nardi.

Thanks

Well, this appears to be yet another campaign where the leader has abdicated. I have to say I'm getting a little tired of this.

However, that's not the membership's fault. Two week extension granted. But that's it everyone. so get cracking!

Thank you, Michael.

So, got the decals on the Stearman the other day, and they look pretty good. Managed to break the tail wheel off (again) Now, I have to finish the horizontal stabilizer & the rigging.

Thanks, Richard. Have to do a little touch-up on the yellow on the underside of the lower wing, then it's on to rigging. Can you tell I'm obsessing about the rigging just a little?
