Some progress on the new plane.

I've had appointments three days in a row and that has prevented me from getting in any flights. By the time I get home the wind has picked up and I end up trying to figure the best way to use the poly-crylic instead of dope paint. I started to apply the first coat to the fuse. this morning by dabbing a small amount on the wood and then scraping it along the sides with a credit card. That really stretches the paint over a large area. I applied tissue to the rudder and fin using the stuff and it has stuck pretty good. I need to get some white dope for the base color. The hobby shop in MA may have a can.
