Friday for pickup!

Nearly 4 months to the day, but I'm all set to pick her up on Friday.

The finish line

The finish line is in sight!  I'm super stoked with how it came out, I think it looks bad ass.  The only thing I'm not quite sure about is I might have gone too dark with the blue stripe as in these photos it looks almost black...  but I'll have to see how it pops in the sunshine.

Layout

The layout is coming together!

Fortunately the owner of the Pilatus I manage lets me use it for my own flights, so I've not been left wanting through all this downtime... perhaps I should rephrase that, I've not been left plane less but certainly been left wanting for a three million dollar Pilatus of my own!  Here we are on a family trip to Sunriver with 10 souls on board.  Can't do that even in the Twin Bonanza.  Awesome trip, awesome spot, awesome flight.  I'll do a write up on Sunriver at some point but let me just say it's a must go destination for any pilot.  

Spraying begun

Swung by today and saw her in the spray room

Primer coat

All the prep work is finally done and she got her primer coat!
