Bill,
Congratulations, I am a couple of months behind you so I know how you must feel. Good luck on the painting. Since you have done it before I am sure you can do a great job. I on the other hand have not and have opted to have a professional do it for me, so it will be at least 6 months before I can get it painted.
See you out there flying someday.

Hello Fellow Rv-8 Builders, yesterday was a banner day at my shop. I offic
ially deemed and declared my RV-8a completed sans construction. I rolled
the fuselage out of the shop to the house hanger and was very happy to se
e her in the sunshine. I will now convert the center bay of my shop into
an overpressure paint booth and begin the painting effort. I figure it'll
take a month of prepping each piece and part, paint and cure, then ship
to the airport for assembly. Probably do the fuselage first so I can begi
n assembly. It took me a couple months to paint the last plane I built so
I know it'll take some time. Still, I feel like I reached a milestone and
want the pace to increase. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Best regards, Bill Phillips
