My brain says yellow but it does look good whatever it is  :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I've got the propellers where I want them. Trimmed off 3/16". More later. Adios, Larry.

I like the tricky clothes peg paint stand!  :thumbsup:

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Green and Gold are the Aussie sporting colours.  It's accepted behaviour for us to claim anything in any shade of yellow or green on it as ours. ;D
The orange has rather spoilt that claim but it makes it look even betterer. :thumbsup:

The paint on the airframe is finished.



Got to work on all of the fiddly bits now.



The decals for the civil registration are in the mail. I'm just waiting on the mailman.



More later.

Adios, Larry.

My Jetstream has a name. It's "Spirit of Margaritaville". It's the personal ride of Jimmy Buffet and his band. It's perfect for island hopping in the Caribbean and jaunts to Mexico and Central America.

The color scheme is my invention and the registration is from a Techmod letter/number sheet.

Adios, Larry.

Yes, I like that a lot, the colour scheme suits it very well indeed.  :thumbsup:

Why do I have this song buzzing in my head when I read the thread title?  ;D
