Just a follow-up to my previous posting. "Got My First Build Done (Almost)"

My 1-year old son has decided he is going to fall on the wing of the new plane.
The plane was waiting for a its maiden flight.
I guess it will be waiting for a new covering....

Let this be a lesson to myself.
Get a lock that locks from the inside and outside for my hobby room...

Any tips on covering application?????

do not worry ,it will not be the last time ..

just wait till your kid starts to fly with you ,doubles your chances to be a "re-kitter" .

Aren't they a blessing?? Wait until you get called into his school because he decided to play show and tell with a little girl in the cloak room like mine did. LMAO

Or they write a paper on there dreams.....Just being able to "hold" my dads black army rifle....with a picture and all.... and I must say it was a very good likeness.....LOL....but I had to do some emergency training to get that out of his system ......Then the other one bounced a basketball onto my Ucando 3D tail, which I thought caused no damage ... till the next Blender and it allmost came out of the fuse. Luckily I saved that one to be rekitted.......

Cover that area white and then give your kid 6 different Sharpies and let him go nuts on that area.
That would be cool.

I like that idea. It'll give a custom look. Do it! Do it!

Al Lewis · 11-20-2008, 10:42 PM

That would definitely be a badge of love!!

Did you rub his nose in it and whip him with newspaper?

Hoosier06 · 11-21-2008, 11:36 AM

I laid my wing bag flat on the basement floor with wings in it from my 35%er. I went downstairs to check on the grand kids and they were running back and forth over it like it was a walk way. They were like 3 and 4 and no damage. Lucked out on that one. Advertisement for Wing Totes!!!!! The boy was at the field with me one day and took my Midwest hold down and flipped it in the air. It came down and the spike part went right through the elevator of my Hanger 9 Sukhoi and stabbed into the ground. I am laughing about all of this now until they do something else when I am off guard.

Got the Wing Covered.

My 1-year old son could not draw, so my 3 year old daughter went to work. Along with my wife.

I hope my daughter doesn't think it's OK to draw on Dad's plane with a sharpie.

Best covering job I've seen in ages! I'd be proud of that one!!!
