1. I'd noticed that the curve of the windshield fairing wasn't consistent on the left side -- there was a bit of an abrupt transition in one spot. So yesterday I applied a smear of filler on that spot, to see if I couldn't sand a smoother curve there. Normally, this filler fully cures in 2 hours or so. Imagine my surprise when I arrived at the paint shop today and found that not only was it not cured, but I could peel it off with my thumbnail. This left a big ragged divot in my carefully sanded windshield fairing. I sanded the edges smooth and decided to let my painter attend to fixing this abomination. We are going to meet tomorrow to assess how to proceed. Argh.

2. Meanwhile, my painter had masked off the back end of the tail section, so I inspected the masking lines to make sure I liked them.
