That I am.......
Today I was at the museum, talking over the layout for some lettering on a plane.
Then I have started work on a 747 display model. Not everyone has a 747 on their dining table!!! Or get to change an 747 engine. One is missing, the second I took off to make a mold, if I can;t get one from the Kiwi model builder. It's hard to see but one of the winglets is broken, have to repair that.
The second is a rather large 707 to Overhaul. It's been relegated to be Out of sight. It really is a mess. Wings are split, paint is crazed. It's going to be an ongoing project. See the wing detail. The fuselage needs massive work. Windows, logos, markings, the lot.
The third is the most interesting. It's an Original, 1945 C-47 maintenance trailer. This is just one side, but all them tools are original RAAF issue, 1945 when the ADF took delivery of the C-47 behind me when I took this picture, and it's still flying. The Douglass logo will be painted across the doors! WIN WITH WINGS ......... Douglas.
The museum will be closed for two months for final finishing touches inside the hall and other safety stuff for visitors. I will be busy! More later.
