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 :).

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 :p.

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 :/.

I do have to ask, do you work ????? :cool::cool::cool:
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 :).
