The building of Florida One

[apkano]

Thought this was pretty impressive. I've been in plenty of assembly plants, but nothing like this.

Talk about a painter's nightmare, I can't imagine how long it took to mask this thing off.

When we were having our jets repainted, granted they are smaller than a 737 and it required a complete refinish and not from brand new, it was costing about $55,000 a pop down in Mexico. We would take a jet down there one morning, and then bring one back. Next day, so the same thing.
