Some VERY clean work going on here, but I have a question. It appears that you are using yellow zinc chromate for the factory primer. What happened to the infamous "salmon" color that was all the rage some years ago? Was there a cut-off date when it was discontinued, only specific aircraft? 


Salmon primer was only on very early Birdcage Corsairs and the primer itself was not in visible areas, the only area that may have been visible was inside the tail wheel, which was not always overcoated in underside color, and inside the cowl flaps.
