6 Jan 2026 - 1 hour

I had a quick bit of time after the boys went to bed so I took the last of the wing skins off the wings (left top inboard, left wing-walk doubler, right top outboard, right top inboard, right wing-walk doubler) and removed the protective vinyl from them. This is a pretty big pain but I used PVC pipe and wrapped the vinyl around it. Then I grabbed the pipe with vice grips and spun it relatively easily to peel the vinyl off the skins. Since these are large and flat, it worked well.

Next time, there will be lots and lots of holes and edges to deburr...
