    Many rounds of fill, sand, check, and repeat, John (@j-healy). This airliner will look great after all of this prep.

    Thanks for the sanding encouragement, men! I now have a complete airframe. More filling to do. I noticed a low spot behind the flight deck that needs to be redone. Once this is ready for paint, I’m thinking I’ll give it a base coat of Tamiya lacquer silver and then pick out panels with AK Xtreme enamels. I’m looking forward to getting paint on this one. I saw one of these built up by Paul Boyer as President Eisenhower’s first “Columbine” last summer and it was stunning. All shiny metal.
