Howard, this is an outstanding series. You are doing a great job.
I've got to admit, there is no-way I would go up in that bucket (kind of weird since I love to fly - especially in small planes). I know it's solid and safe but the hebee-geebee factor is huge. I get the creeps just looking at some of the pictures. I'm glad you are able to do it and get this unbelieveable coverage.
I noticed that some of the places the bolts have been painted green while where the guys are working it's still unpainted. Is this how they keep track of work being done? Do they paint the bolts after someone checks that they are all tight and it's a way of signing off that connection?
