| Waiting for daytime to give it a couple of coats of gloss clear. When dry I'll paint the anti-glare panel in front of the cockpit. |

| BTW: THis is a Loening OL-8A flying over Ketichan during teh Navy's 1929 Alaskan aerial survey mission. Over 7600 large format pictures were taken. Bet was chilly in those open cockpits! |

| Another trip down the rabbit hole. Since DD wouldn't float his Beaver, I felt compelled to start on this 35 in. W.S. Loening OL-8A. This is the fuselage float BTW. There isn't a lot of detail on the plans, nor is there a lot of information lurking in the usual places. But, with the big damn fuselage float, two wings, the bare P&W 1340 hanging out in front, it should be a blast. I'm planning on marking it as one of the planes that did the aerial photographic survey of Alaska in 1928. Wish me luck. |

| This photo from Barry shows that the model is still just like it was two years ago. When Captain Kaye was in training he was told to either shorten or change his name as the Germans were sending Polish people to death camps. Barry was born later and by that time the name had been changed back to Kucharski. The other brothers are named Kaye. |
