Heavy inspection on the DH-2 is quite the chore. There is a lot to look at! This machine is VERY active, as in up to 50 hours in a month. @aviationbrat is getting a workout operating a screwdriver opening and closing all the panels for inspection as screw guns are not allowed at RARE on aircraft panels. With all the ups and downs of crawling around a floatplane this big we’re all feeling it towards the end of this week. Perfection is the goal, once achieved, mission accomplished
