I finally finished resurfacing the boys P-51. The rain had gotten to it and messed up the paint and plywood pretty bad. After 2 coats of sanding sealer, 2 coats of bondo, 3 coats of primer, 3 coats of paint, and 4 coats of polycrylic… it should be able to withstand anything… well except for maybe two little boys. I also did up the one side for Tyler.

I start my new job tomorrow. It’s going to be weird not putting on a flight suit and driving to North Island.

The side letters are their initials and the tail numbers are their birthdays.

Jake has been a good boy and got enough stickers to go flying with me today.

They can grow up to be whatever they want… they can be fighter pilots, they can be airline pilots, they can be bush pilots, they can be fly crop duster or news helicopters… whatever they want : )

Ty took advantage of Jake being wrapped up like a burrito.
