Some pictures of this week...

Here's some pictures from this week. It was a good week and we got a lot done; there's always more to do. Anyway, here's some highlights:








This is David cleaning out the belly of the fuselage. Note the newly painted landing gear with new tires.












Here's Tim, one of our new recruits, cleaning all the door sills so they will be ready for painting, as well as removing some of the light corrosion on the fuselage.













Ryan showing Brandon how to use the hydraulic press to punch holes in the new instrument panel that Brandon made. It was cool; when the punch cut through the .063" metal, it made a loud POP!
(notice Brandon's reaction)













Some of you might not have any clue what this picture is. This is a bucking bar that someone (no names here) left inside a flap while doing a repair. The entire flap was riveted closed and when it was picked up a clunk, clunk was heard. Nice. So un-rivet a portion and I found the culprit hiding inside. Oh, well. Mistakes are human. No worries.
