REFLECTOR: Plane painted - wow, that was a lot of work!

[Reiff Lorenz]

Geoff,

The plane looks great. It's been fun following your progress. I'm looking forward to reports of taxi testing and preparation for the big day!

Folks,

Over the last few weeks I painted my plane.  What a huge amount of work.  You can see the pictures and read about it here  <http://thegerhardts.com/velocity/?p=299> (http://thegerhardts.com/velocity/?p=299) if you're interested.  Basic white with burgundy/silver stripes and around the windows.  Tons of prep work, many late nights masking stripes and N-Numbers, but great to see it all finished.  It turned out great - I'm very pleased.  Its now out of my home shop, and at my hangar at KORH (Worcester, MA), which is ~20min drive away.  Its a bit tougher to work on it out there instead of my basement shop so it might go a little slower...I'm on the home stretch now, though!
