Fuselage skin removal in preparation of new skin addition.  Tape is for emergency use in case a dog gets near stand.  The red stripe on tail was a bugger to remove according to my Brother. 

Help from assistants and lots of sweat got the bumps and hill removed. 

Patience doing well.   Diane is wondering why towels now have fiberglass dust on them!

Buddy left one day to go to work and when he got home the bird had chicken pox.  Diane was not a happy camper!   Buddy now has a bed of fiberglass towels to sleep on. 

After many hours of sanding and filling and sanding again, the surface was approaching profection.

I had asked Buddy to come up with a few ideas about colors and patterns.
