I need to finish off the superfreighter I did, or should it be a super, superfreighter. It was meant to be Honduras airforce or navy, and be a flying field hospital. It has scratch build turbo prop engines, with 1/100th scale TU 95 contraprops on it.

Couldn't we all;

Ewe-nited Kingdom
Ram-ania
I-ram
Pakist-ram

or a new country, perhaps - Lambistan

Where am I going?  And why am I in a handbasket?

A sufficiently 'winey' looking colour has been procured; Vallajo 72011 Gory Red, in their Game Colors range. Won't be covering the whole aircraft with it, but it can't go without it.

This thing is HUGE! I'll have to put the wings on once all the major paint is done, it won't fit in the spray booth. Decals have probably been finalised for printing.

There is a bracing strut that goes from the landing gear leg to the fuselage. After many ground crew had inadvertantly walked into it and hurt themselves, it was christened the 'DAMN AND BLAST IT!' strut, and measures were taken to make it more visible.

Though it's still no guarantee someone who's just not paying attention or in a world of their own won't still miss it... :banghead:

Yes, but when the inevitable OSHA investigation occurs, the fact that said aircraft had the safety striping in place already will allow the investigators to rule that out.

IME of safety audits once they find something they stop looking.
When tipped off by my sources in Melbourne Water that we were getting a surprise safety audit at the poo farm I would go out and lay the hose across the path.
The auditors would arrive, start to check stuff and find the hose.
"Not again Fred, this was here last time.  You really ought to make sure your workers put this away when they have finished using it."
"Yeah , sorry.  I keep telling them.  I do check at the end of the day before I go home but someone must have just used it."
And then off they would go back to their not smelly office.  They were happy they had found something and I was happy that they hadn't found any of the things I didn't want them to find.
