Doug,

Is you bird classified as a retract or fixed gear for insurance purposes?

My plane has been in dry dock for 3 years now while I painted it, moved the
batteries from the nose to beneath the back seat, replaced one of the
Plasma IIIs with a magneto, and other miscellaneous changes I wanted to
make after flying in primer for 135 hours.  The plane is 2.5 hours from
where I'm working now, so I haven't been able to spend as much time on it
as I would have liked.  But this weekend I finally got the magneto all
hooked up and taxied around for about 20 minutes to get the oil hot, and
took some pictures.

So here's a few pictures of my simple paint scheme.  The stripes are
painted, not decals. There's a big blue stripe down the middle of the
bottom of the fuselage as wide as the one on the nose gear.  I thought it
might make the plane easier to spot from the ground.

I won't paint another airplane because I'm not very good at it.  But I
wanted to try it.  There's a lot of orange peel.  But now it's sealed and
protected with that cross linked yacht paint.
