That’s how it has to be with anything to do with a paint repair. Quite cold here today – only around 14 degrees Celsius – so I left it until midday before going back to Malbec to do the next bit of work on ASY’s wingtip. I wasn’t there very long as I couldn’t do very much, just rubbing down the coat of primer I applied yesterday and then thickening it up with another coat, as it was too chilly to start on any more.<\/p>\n

Here’s a shot that I took before I left. It still looks a bit rough, so you’ll have to take my word that it was quite nice and smooth before I whacked another coat on, mainly because the rubbing down had just gone through in one small patch on part of that sharp front edge.<\/p>\n

It should be warmer tomorrow so I’ll be able to get a bit more done. I’ve also got to check with the Mairie at Plazac what my next step is with my two planning dossiers – one for the main work I want to do on my house and the other for the new ‘assainissement’ (septic tank) system that I’ll also have to put in – both of which I’ve now finished (Yay!!). Do both have to be handed in to the Mairie, or does the latter one have to go to the SPANC office in Montignac? I need to know because time is ticking on.<\/p>\n

There’s a scrap of good news about the weather. The next two days are both forecast to be dry with Tuesday being sunny with a high of over 20 degrees Celsius. There’s a chance that the warm weather may extend into Wednesday so if I can get the wingtip finished and the new strobe light on, I may even get a flight in this week!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
