Good job Ken! I'm hoping to follow this spring.
Like the paint. It's one of my options.
Glad you found a day to fly with all the cr**** weather we get at this time of year.
Good luck.

Awesome, Ken!

We are going to have a squadron of -8's around here soon. Yours, mine, Kevin's, Bill's 8A, Chris Hepburn will be done in the spring, and Normand is coming along.

Who did your final inspection?

Thanks for all the well wishes :)

The paint is Shell Yellow and I will get the paint code for those that are interested. Graphics will be done in vinyl and I am still thinking of ideas to compliment the basic color.... maybe a winking piggy with wings and a curly tail for the nose art :)

No trouble with TC that I am aware of ;) 'GBS' was the old man's initials and seemed like a fitting tribute to him.

Pierre Fournier from Montreal ended up doing the final inspection. As you Ottawa RV'ators know, the local inspectors are getting few and far between.

Get her done Chris and we can soon have a five ship ! Who's gonna be the first to put in smoke........
