Diana
Final Approach
The wings are off and bare. Her skin is mostly gone. There were no big surprises, except about ten pounds of mud dauber nests inside the wings. Spars look great and no corrosion anywhere. A few strange things were found, but overall she was in good shape for being almost 30 years old.
It was a great learning experience today, and we are very happy with our mechanic. He let me make the first cut, and he understood that it would be hard. Plus, he is planning on teaching me some aerobatics in the Citabria when it's done. I only wish his Pitts had two seats!
