Wolf,
Thank you for sharing your amazing adventure. In the end we sport pilots fly because it it inspires us deep in our soul. Your story, your photos and your meticulous care for Whiskey Blue are all inspiring. Safe travels and tailwinds my friend.

[My bird is also painted with something similar. It's stunning in the sunlight. It's definitely not as stunning as polish, but it looks good and easy to keep looking clean.[quote] Gotta say that is a great looking paint job.
