You can see serial number in pic below. This is not the one next to the wine cellar. This is where they punch the beer tap but should provide sufficient evidence.

I wonder if the manufacturing step shown in this photo is the attachment of the horizontal stabilizer.

I recall that this piece is held in place with glue.

I've seen an operation similar to what's shown in this photo, not in the factory, but in the field in a service center, where the horiz stabilizer had been removed in preparation for replacement, after some kind of incident. Besides getting the glue right, it seemed that the challenges included getting the stabilizer mounted at precisely the right position and angle, and curing the glue under the right conditions so that it lasts.

:blush: gosh it nice to be thought of, I love you man!
 
They sure seem to be skimpy on those rivets!
 
It's probably epoxying, not gluing, and the level of difficulty is probably keeping the glass transition temperature high enough.

So, from the hole pattern it looks like you can have 2 different beers on tap?
 
Hey! It has wings! It's nice that they let you follow the process like this. We get to watch it "come from apart".

Seems like it got more than that since the last photo. Windows, wings, nose and main gears. Tires even! Very exciting!

Anything custom about the exterior or interior that you've ordered? (Color, material?)
