Alright folks got some more work done, so here is a quick update. I finished up the Hawk Hurricane by @mach1 rc two days ago and yesterday while at work I set up a paint station and gave it a paint job. In between coats I started working on the FT Racer until my shift was over. Tonight I finished decorating the Hawk Hurricane and continued working on the FT Racer this is where is left off.

Some more progress here after yesterday’s night shift at work . I finished the FT Racer and almost finished the FT Long EZ. With the racer I ended up going with the speed canopy out of laziness. The Hawk Hurricane was maidened and more about that will be posted here later today, after I get some sleep 😴.

Alright so I am out doing myself . I had half a morning shift at work this morning so I built myself an FT Bloody Baron . That makes it four out of four planes that need to be built for the challenge. Yes, I am still missing a paint job and maiden on 3 out of the 4 but I am in the safe zone now, and moving on to the extras . Tonight I also have the night shift at work, hmmm wonder what’s going to happen .

So another one to the fleet one that is an extra and has been sitting on my workbench forever now.

Alright another night shift at work another plane to build. This time I will be taking apart a plane first before building a new one, want to guess which one it is? If you guessed the Goblin you are right! Going to take the electronics out of this old body and give it a new life .

 

[mayan]

Electronics removed from air frame .

Cleaned up the table and took out the parts for the new one.

Let’s get started .

With a fire in an apartment incident I still managed to finish the wing.

Now on to the fuselage.

Now that would suck, fire in the apartment and all foam melted down . With all this energy you have you should just be selling the kits

Coffee break and this is where I stopped for a moment only.

I do have to ask, do you work ?????

 

[mayan]

Night shift almost over and this is where I am leaving this at until tomorrow during my afternoon shift. I’ve finished the fuselage and wings installation, but I’ve messed the nose part so will have to rebuild that :/.

 

[mayan]

I do have to ask, do you work ?????

Yep and build in between calls. Night shifts can be calm or busy this one was calm, two calls in 7.5 hours, that means I had a very productive night plane wise. Of course I have a few other stuff I have to do but that's something I always leave myself to do in the one hour that is left before my shift is over .

 

[mayan]

Alright calm afternoon shift and we managed to recut and build a new Goblin nose so here it is completed .

 

[The Hangar]

@mayan your builds are coming along nice!

 

[mayan]

Thanks buddy yours too. 3 out of 4 so far?
