Yes, great input. I hope to get some more pics soon. They've set the fuselage up in it's spot, but haven't attached anything but the pod yet when I drove by yesterday evening. Coming down Vandenberg Ave., it will be directly across as one turns onto Thomas Ave., facing you. Quite a sight, hope it doesn't cause any accidents. As LBF says, it's a real looker.

They seem to be taking their sweet time with this bird, the wings and engines are on, but there's still supports under the wings and always workstands nearby. Some of the panels near the rudder are also not installed yet. I'll take some shots next chance I get, but it's been very hot lately. Bumped from page 5, lol.

Great series of pictures, its much smaller than I had imagined. Like the picture of the fuselage side where you can see how thin the wing is.

She's looking good. 
Seems shinier on one side than the other. Is that just a trick if the light, or are they still applying the Brasso?

Probably still needs polishing, but perhaps the right side had moisture from still being in shadow. Regardless, all the major bits are done, hopefully they'll have it looking really nice for the airshow the base is putting on Sept. 8-9.
