Speedy's ASK-14 Motorglider |

| Bernard "Speedy" Gonsalves and Bert Persson are making
great progress with the restoration of Speedy's ASK-14 single-seat motorglider. Today at
YCAB Speedy spray painted the exterior of the fuselage after many, many hours of
restoration work. As can be seen from the pics below, the finish and shine achieved on the
wood-construction fuselage is comparable to a fibreglass/composite finish. |

| No points for guessing who is keen to fly her! |

The following pics provide an indication of the work that has been done on the fuselage
and retractable main wheel. Much more work has been done by Speedy and Bert on
refurbishing the wings. |

This is what she will look like when the
restoration is completed ... |
Speedy's worst nightmare .......... what if the local Caboolture
graffiti "artists" get to his ASK-14 after the restoration is competed? |
