You know, I was thinking that only real men flew taildraggers, but then
on the other hand, what kind of primer to real men use?

OK I will bite. Spent the day working on my RV-7A. My building partner
|
and hangar mate "Indiana Larry" (RV-7 N3XG) and I got the fuel tank vent
lines installed in the nose and started running the fuel lines. I am
building a NO PRIMER, RV-7A, Lycoming O-360-A1A with new Titan
cylinders, Engine mount spaced out 9/16" from the firewall on 1 1/2"
diameter spacers. Hopefully this will put my W/B right on with the 18
pound Catto 3 blade prop.
As soon as the fuel lines are run and the wing lights are wired the
wings will come off for painting. The painting process will be acid
etch, alodyne, PPG epoxy primer, House of Kolor gold base coat followed
by House of Kolor Kandy Apple Red and clear top coat. Interior is
Classic Aero Designs Sportsman leather seats and carpeting. Everything
else visible through the canopy is painted with PPG interior flat
paint. Again, prep was acid etch, alodyne and then the paint.
There should be enough meat here for several discussions.

I've always been wondering, what do real women fly? It was a woman
who taught me how to fly a taildragger!
