Vic Prefontaine's 60+ years of experience saved the day again - our mount for the flying wires was looking like a 'dog's breakfast' until Vic dropped by and within 20 minutes had a solid, manageable mount built and the flying wires were now ready for the paint booth. Yesterday the wires were cleaned and metal preped.
Betty and Henry Riege dropped by to see the wings which he led the team to cover with fabric.
Gil Bourrier suiting up to paint the flying wires with 2-part epoxy primer after we wiped them down three more times with paint cleaning solvent just in case they picked up some grease on the move to the hangar set up in Jill n Rick's hangar.

The flying wires curing - we'll leave them in the mount Vic designed to dry and the top coat will be black, using the same paint as Gil used for all the hardware.
