1. My painter needed more black and white paint, plus the yellow for the tail checkerboard, so I ran down to the Advance Auto Parts paint department and bought some more very expensive custom-mixed PPG Delfleet paint. The black and white were pretty easy colors to pick, but the yellow took a while to choose. I was looking for something that wasn't too yellow (lemon) or too orange (pumpkin) but someplace in between, and it's easy to lose one's way in the color sample books. There are too many choices. I finally picked one, and we're moving on! 2. The painter moved the fuselage out of his paint booth into his main bay, and he asked if I could come over and we'd place the wings in position for a few days. My fiends Jim and Jim helped with the job. We slid the spars in, and supported the wings with padded sawhorses. This arrangement ought to be okay as long as nobody moves the airplane. It was pretty cool seeing the painted wings on the airplane for the first time!
