Learjet 45 Simulator Project

I’ve been battling bronchitis, so the last few weeks haven’t been very productive. Sanding tends to be bad for already irritated lungs. I’m ready now, with respirator in hand, to start the final sanding and shaping of the foam on the outside of the shell. After that, a coat of hardener and some green paint and then it’s on to the work I’ve been really wanting to do on the interior. Expect more activity here in the coming weeks.

The walls are painted! It’s strange the way the uniform color on the inside changes my perceptions. Although I know it’s just Masonite hardboard, it feels like I’m inside a real airplane now.

Bring on the foam!
