Wavey fiberglass work in the HS/VS fairing (and I don't care)

Just over a year ago with minimal hours on our new to us RV-6, which I christened the ’Millenium Falcon’, and a dripping wet formation endorsement I got invited to fly with 12 good mates. That lead to becoming part of a 13 ship formation team, that ended up flying a display in the Pacific Airshow Gold Coast.

Spotted this highly modified RV-8. Modified to fit in very small hangar. The pilot said it's pretty blind while taxiing, and until he gets the tail up on takeoff. Also, he said it has all the attributes of a very, very short-coupled taildragger.

Today’s entry…..😎 I thought this was a picture of Jay Pratt ……and when I zoomed in it after uploading I discovered it was me in the front and Rob Reece in the back :). I flew Jay’s airplane a few times a few years back . Great plane.
