From Ken Ramsay:

The wings were installed on the OV-1 today (6 photos). Right wing on.
Left wing up.

Easy does it.
A little more.

Success.
The Beech is getting its beauty treatment.

The new skin on the Corsair has been primed.
The damaged Drake underbelly is coming along. Look at all of those Clecos holding the structure together.

The first F-102 drop thank tail cone is taking shape. Rolling a cone is a very exacting process.
I’m working on repairing the wind damaged F-102 elevon. All of the old rivets and screws have been removed. Now to reassemble it.

Paul began finish shaping the F-105’s stabilator right tip. Sanding and body putty. We are waiting for rib installation to finish the left outer leading edge.
Carl continues to make nose cones for the Sparrow missiles. We need 8.

From Ronald Schultz:

Flags at half-staff for the passing of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg
John and Ken working on the Drake damage from last springs tornado storm.

Chet & Mike spray a non-reflective black paint on the cockpit-side of the engine cowlings so the pilots would not be blinded by the glare of the silver.
Some of our equipment in use around the complex.

Aero Vodochody L-29 Delfin,PZL-Meilec SB LIM-2 Midget and the Lockheed T-33A Shooting Star
