I'm still working forward from the tail end on the Super Duty but I did get a few other things done too. See all that in this video...

Wow Mark, you do awesome work, I plan to take 2 years on my 701 and strive to at least come close to your talent. Thanks for the inspiration to try and do the same.

Yours will look great!

@Know-Way 11 месяцев назад

That paint scheme Looks awesome. Always looking forward to seeing you next video. For things like the light mount on the rudder, I like to use silicone sealant/adhesive to hold things from moving around/chafing. It does a good job of securing it, and it's easy to peel off for maintenance. I'd probably just use a small amount (so it doesn't squeeze out and can't be seen) at the top of the bracket, but low from the edge, near the light. With none on the bottom of the bracket, any water ingress could drain out easily; and with none near the screw removing the light for maintenance would be easier.

@aviationled_mmix 10 месяцев назад

Excellent advice 👍 … I’d probably ‘wet install’ the screw with that silicone sealant as well. Yeah it’s messy and would require a little careful ‘clean up’ afterwards but it would prevent water ingress via the screw hole as the faring expands during summer’s heat.

@gregoryriddle4161 11 месяцев назад

Hi Mark. Can you do a video on how you did the checkers? Yours looks great!

@AnonyMous-jf4lc 11 месяцев назад

The reason your small parts come out better than the wings is that you manage how much material you put down better on the smaller piece. Getting long, smooth, and consistent overlapping application over a larger area is much more difficult. Large pieces also require more precise gun setup as how the material is spread across the entire width of the fan plays a big role in outcome. The single biggest improvement in my ability to lay down good paint came from having a expert show me exactly how to match my gun settings to the environment I was spraying in, the material I was laying down, and the application technique I was using along with the capabilities of my air source.

G,day Mark from Sydney Australia. Any possibility of seeing the efficiency of the exhaust fan in the spray booth? If it's removing the overspray. 🌏🇭🇲

You've put a lot of work into the tail and it shows. I like the fully checkered tail. Thanks for the continuing excellence in the quality of your videos.

@johntyrone307 11 месяцев назад

Very nice. Do you have a video of how you painted the checkered pattern? Also, where did you get the tail beacon fairing?

@KitplaneEnthusiast 11 месяцев назад

The checkers are vinyl. There's no way I could paint that without it looking like crap. The tail light fairing is available from Zenith Aircraft.

Mark, what are you using to "cut" the vinyl lettering/ graphics that you are placing placards etc. on your airplane with?

@andygreever8684 11 месяцев назад

When I installed Knots2U fairings on my old Cherokee, we used rivnuts. Are all of your fairings installed with machine screws into the skin?

@keithrogers5832 11 месяцев назад

You just mentioned spritzing the paint, and it looked better. You know that you can change nozzles to apply less paint. I always had a test surface to shoot at and sometimes a third or fourth coat. Most of the time, 4 coats. Taught my son, now he works for Duncan Aviation. It truly is an art, there's always wetsanding, boy we've done plenty of that. Keep up the great work 👍

@theresacaron4238 11 месяцев назад

Wow! It sure is coming along great, it would be great to show how you apply the checkers, it's got to be a tedious process.

@STOL750 11 месяцев назад

Would be great to see you apply the checker board patten! How you line it up on the front seam.

@GroterRonald 11 месяцев назад

Heel erg mooi😀

@stevesp38 11 месяцев назад

Could you show how you apply the checkers to the tail? Again, excellent work and beautiful airplane.

@JMOUC265 11 месяцев назад

It's moot, but I thought and still think that the alternate tail covering idea was very nice. So, pfbbbbst! LOL 😄 By the way, I think that two additional screws on each side of the tail light fairing would be wise. Sheet metal fairing screws on airplanes tend to vibrate loose in time, especially after you have removed them a few times for wiring inspection and maintenance.

@KitplaneEnthusiast 11 месяцев назад

I already decided to add the other screws because with the one screw per side it moves just slightly. I don't want it to vibrate and slowly wear off the paint or cause any damage from the vibration.

Dude what can I say? I'm the world's most awesome painter! HAHA!! If you've seen my other videos you'd know I suck at painting. I painted the rudder yellow and then cut the black squares out of vinyl. So...they are stickers.

Checkerboard process please 😮

@telliott100 11 месяцев назад

Mark, do you think it is safe to store a Zenith Super Duty outside IF I make fairings like you make, seal all the gaps with special window sealer and keep it covered with professional, custom made covers (such as Bruce's Custom Covers)?

@KitplaneEnthusiast 11 месяцев назад

Safe? Sure. But like any airplane rain will get inside, wind will beat it up, and the sun will fade the paint. Nothing you can do about that if the airplane is outside. But it's an aluminum airplane and can certainly survive outside. Just try to seal it off as best you can.

@usslindstrom 11 месяцев назад

I hope you explain why you're going with a single screw on the .... Holy crap, you read my mind and literally did it as I was thinking. Only use that superpower for good.

@user-tl5fi9lz9z 11 месяцев назад

Perhaps you could put the red white and blue stripes that were on the tail of most British aircraft of WW II. Missed you at Oshkosh.

@Fang70 11 месяцев назад

Do you have a "hero" hand riveter for RU-vid videos? Mine looks a little more beat up than that.

@Ronzola1 11 месяцев назад

I know my opinion doesn't matter. Make yourself happy, but three or four rows of checkers look sooo much better.

@spyrosg3172 11 месяцев назад

"Aerial Surveillance Squadron" wouldn't have been... British enough, in terms of the spelling of the acronym. It would have needed to be something like "Aerial Reconnaissance and Signals Executive" I'll show myself out.
