Past few weeks I have been doing a shop renovation. You can see the diseray in the first picture. This shed had a ton of old wood paneling that was warped like hell and made the shop dark and musty. Went back with OSB for most of it other than one wall that I put 3 sheets of extra drywall up that I had left over. All the planes found homes on the walls of the shop and now I'm to the good part of building a work bench. Frame is done and top is just setting in place. Next up is install the lower shelf and finish putting away and organizing everything.

Here is the layout for a GP61 to bolt up on the firewall as well as everywhere wood is exposed I will have to cut away for the Pitts Muffler.

Tail surfaces hinged and ready to go. Just need to finish sand and they are ready to cover.

Wheels mounted and out in the sunlight.

Hmm. This is with tail surfaces still installed. Mind you there will still be an engine and cowl that will make it even longer. Looka like I might have to take it to the field with the tailgate down.
