That's such a crazy scheme! I'm sure it was difficult to keep your focus when laying it out but it looks impressively chaotic.

I have a Mig-29 in the stash with that crazy digicamo paint. I am scared to death to do it. Man that is one fantastic piece of work. Well done.

If you can't fix it with duct tape, you're not using enough duct tape.

Many thanks guys! She’s made her way to the case for now so i can relax. She’s not coming out till Blizzcon up in Columbus, then over to regionals in Louisville before she retires for the year. Hope she travels well :hmm:

I also hope for the best at Columbus and Louisville! That sure is a contender!

Pack it upside down over foam or other cushion material; that is how I transport my planes. Greatly reduces that chance of landing gear failure.

Now that’s some out of the box thinking. Also, should prevent the top box flaps from busting off the canopy when someone accidentally pushes on them during transport :giggles:
