Due to other commitments today, I only had time for some tinkering this morning. So I decided to:
Add the NO STEP graphic to the port wing root. It's an inch high, and done in the same post-war RAF font as the registrations, and in the same colour.
As mentioned, Sam and I debated about the best thing to have on the tail, and in the end we decided to go for a subtle, lower down the rudder serial number, once again in the same font and colour. Many of the Turbulent fleet have old PFA serial numbers of between 450 and 550, so we felt this was fitting to its age, and somewhat respectful to the good old PFA, without whom many of us wouldn't be flying today.
And finally, some really obsessive tinkering, the painting up of the fuel tank filler!! The filler has had a little protruding tube that we had welded to it to support the fuel gauge wire, which is simply a piece of wire with a petrol/ethanol proof float on the bottom. I have one in the Cub and it's guaranteed to be accurate every time!
Registrations going on fuselage tomorrow....
