As we announced a few days ago, the second wing of the Duo Discus EI has been completed, the control surfaces reassembled and polished.

The fuselage was then put to work. The preparation/defrosting phase lasted a good week. Then the application of the new gelcoat began on Friday 2 February, for the first half, with the left side following the next day.

The UFO in the white overalls at the end of the spray gun was Birgit, who made her debut as a painter on this occasion.

If we're lucky enough to continue at this rate until the end of the project, the machine may be able to return to active service a little earlier than planned. But let's not sell the bear's skin short...

See you soon for more information on gelcoat and gelcoaters.
