Can Robins be repainted ?
Just two other question that occurred to me. We have had our aircraft stripped and get a bare metal respray in the past. I know that the robin has I think a Dacron skin, what happens if you want to repainted a robin can you strip the existing paint or is it a case of painting over it, thus adding to aircraft weight?
Secondly, over what timescale might the skin need to be replaced, and are minor repairs easy enough?
Does anyone know if there are any balance issues with the 2.0s and increased MTOW? I'm surprised to hear about the aft C of G issues on the Ecoflyer as I thought with the heavy diesel up front it would be the opposite?
Thanks again for all the comments.
