    Bill, Congratulations, I am a couple of months behind you so I know how you must feel. Good luck on the painting. Since you have done it before I am sure you can do a great job. I on the other hand have not and have opted to have a professional do it for me, so it will be at least 6 months before I can get it painted. See you out there flying someday. John Time: 06:58:09 AM PST US Subject: RV8-List: Finish Construction From: japhillipsga@aol.com Hello Fellow Rv-8 Builders, yesterday was a banner day at my shop. I offic ially deemed and declared my RV-8a completed sans construction. I rolled the fuselage out of the shop to the house hanger and was very happy to se e her in the sunshine. I will now convert the center bay of my shop into an overpressure paint booth and begin the painting effort. I figure it'll take a month of prepping each piece and part, paint and cure, then ship to the airport for assembly. Probably do the fuselage first so I can begi n assembly. It took me a couple months to paint the last plane I built so I know it'll take some time. Still, I feel like I reached a milestone and want the pace to increase. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Best regards, Bill Phillips

    Bill, Congratulations! Have you posted any photos anywhere? As soon as you finish painting your RV-8A, mine could use paint also. : ) Stan Sutterfield _www.rv-8a.net_ (http://www.rv-8a.net) Don not archive Hello Fellow Rv-8 Builders, yesterday was a banner day at my shop.
