Yup! He is! And since he is a retired UPS pilot he really helped with the pre-flight.

Went to Louisville to visit family. My brother helped me with the preflight.

All done!

Thank you for letting your neighbor know about my ladder discrepancy. I feel this one is much more suited.
A bit more color scheme-oriented.

Yes, the Yellow/gold is a thin line border around the blue but a white border separates the blue from the yellow. So very thin trim lines and very nice. I think it’s great to have two vintage aircraft next door to each other. Our little airport is pretty interesting if you hang out a while!

I’ll let my neighbor know that the green ladder offends your sense of aesthetics

Does the gold/yellow trim border the blue and white? I think that would be a nice touch.
I’m glad you have a roommate for Annie. Two legacy classics.

His green ladder has got to go. It doesn’t match the paint scheme.

It almost looks like the shade of blue is the same. Annie, a bit darker blue metallic?
Thanks for sharing.

Kent,

Actually his blue is a little lighter than mine. Also, his paint job is fancier, it’s actually got gold (yellow?) trim color that don’t really show in this picture. But it is a metallic blue and very pretty.
