And....we're stalled until it warms the heck up around here.  I have no place to spray paint unfortunately, so unless the weather co-operates (Yeah, that'll happen) I may have to back burner the AAC till spring.   :(

I really like the little F/A-27's. Your carrier platform is sooooo freaking huge it is mindboggling. I'm just glad I don't have to do the fodwalk for any landingstrip that can accomodate this beast ;)


Looking forward to seeing more progress...if it has to wait til spring so be it.

Are you using spray cans?  I was told a trick a last year, when I was trying to spray in winter although I've never used it myself since (the weather got warmer).  Pop the can in a narrow flower vase & pour warm (not hot) water in, so the water surrounds the can.  Leave it it 15-20 minutes, your can should stay warm for long enough to get at least one coat on.

No idea how well it works, but it's worth a try rather than waiting six months!

Nice job by the way!
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

I use that method of warming spray cans all the time and it lets the paint flow very well. Good suggestion. :)

Been using that idea for ages. I used to to keep all sorts of cans warm and ready. CO2 bottles for paintball, Aircans for when I airbrush at night -Got a noisey compressor - and for rattle cans as well....
