VH-UEU in base coat

VH-UEU making progress towards completion once again as painting begins.  The White is a base coat and the final finish will be quite different.

And there's something about the landing gear that isn't quite right.

Just kidding - it looks great.   Best of luck with it.

Great to see it at this stage - it's been a long road, Rob.

Cheers,

Rod.

It certainaly has been a long row to hoe.  Painting of the fuselage should be completed by next week, and the wings should go on the week after.

I said it would look quite different when colour was applied.   It looks like a lot of red but again it will look different  with the white  tailplane, rudder and canopy fitted.  A bit hard to taxi with the present tail skid.

Suddenly, Rob, the colour scheme looks familiar!

Are you basing it on this one? Sorry, it's not the best photo but the only one I have showing the wing upper-surfaces.

All the best,

Rod.

Yes, the colours are slightly different and the line altered to match the Lycoming cowl.
