Three of us flew down to visit a friend of mine at his ranch on 12 mile. I
had never landed there before, but was convinced that it would cause no
problem for the Firestar. The Wild (feral) horses are pretty thick in that
area.

I have one camera on my right wing and the other on the nose. So when it
flew out of the side view, I inserted the front view.The only hard part was
the timing, since I am slow compared to him. So in reality - the way that I
got the shot was pure Luck. :-)

Keep your eyes open for `The return of the Spitfires` broadcast last
night. 38 Spits, Hurricanes and a Blenheim took off from Goodwood (the
old RAF field of Westhampnet) split ionto flights and covered the South
of England. I saw red flight of 6 Spits routed round the South coast and
then Salisbury to Bristol diverting slightly over my home town of
Trowbridge were Spits were built, taken my old gliding field at Keevil,
5 miles away and then flown by the ATA to the squadrons. pink flight
which was routed Bath to Colerne was running so late I went home. I
remember Colerne as an active `drome protecting Bath during the blitz.
Several 2 seaters flew. Prince Harry was scheduled for one seat but gave
it up to someone else whose Spitfire had gone crook. Good mark for the
Royals. I am still scheduled to fly for Oct 28th. They want to feature
me in a promo video. I am trying to parlay that into some stick time
inspite of `you will not be allowed to touch the controls` in the small
print. I can cancel right up to engine start. Unless there are dual
controls I think i will do that. Pat

Subject: | Re: RE: Herb' paint job |
thanks Stuart...
Yeah. Takes a squirrel or rabbit to enthuse the pups... or a slice of
bologna..:-)
The panel is held in place by two bolts which are welded to the
bottom corners of the lower longeron that defines the access area...
Kinda nifty...but the previous builder came up with that(the plane
came to me as a quick build )... the bolts have drilled holes and I will
get a couple of wing nuts to hold it in place along with a couple of
latch pins...
He also changed the fuselage to hold a larger gas tank...10
gals...I will place a red line at the 5 gallon mark ! :-) I will do an
all up wt and bal with 10 gals just for grins....That would be something
on the order of a 520 gross... 490 with 5 gals...
By the way... I have heard that stits one part coatings cannot be wet
sanded....not so.. I painted part of one wing with the second coat of
poly brush before I saw that it was going on like sand paper.... Using
320 and 600 grit took good care of that area....need to be careful with
320 grit on 1.8 oz fabric however.. Herb
