*stunned*

As I've said before, the concept looks totally plausible and real. 

BUT

You've combined that with yet another stunningly realistic paintjob.

Words fail me

You know those "Remove Before Flight" tags often seen on military aircraft while at rest?
What would be the equivalent text to use on similar tags hanging from this Tucara of mine from Argentina?
Or do the folks in Argentina simply use "Remove Before Flight" tags in English?

When I use an online translation tool, "Remove Before Flight" becomes "quite antes del vuelo"
and something tells me that is not correct.

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

JHM,
Not sure if this helps much but there is a pic on Airliners that when you show the large version you can see one tag in english and another that appears in spanish which appears to say Retirar Astes Del Vuelo

Brilliant!
;D ;D
PS - Given the paint job, shouldn't it be a 'Putor' (as in pewter)?

From that pic (Philips Link) the tag looks like it says "retrar antes del vuelo"
