This was a father and son project and took about 5 years, stretched over 30 as we stopped for other issues occasionally. The original plans were unsatisfactory, which required quite a bit of redesign and attention to detail. We made a spray booth and painted ourselves, after a family vote on the design. Thanks for your comments!
You seem to nail those landings in 3 point. What approach speed does the Piet use? Great video clip!

Do you have an approximate build time? Expecially useful if it was not a full-time project. I really like the paint job
