Fabric Covering SuperSTOL Fuselage using Poly-Fiber System

Time-lapse video of how I covered a SuperSTOL fuselage with the Poly-fiber covering system. This piece was covered using medium weight fabric and light weight pinked edge finishing tapes.
Videos showing the covering of other SuperSTOL pieces can be found on my channel!

I can see this is not her first cover job. Very nicely done young lady!!!

[@Andysfishing]

I’ve watched a few of your videos. They all seem to be time lapse. It would be good to hear you explain the process.

[@tileman1814]

I have been involved in covering several aircraft the first one in 1966 and I'll be the first to say it is good to see the skills the one needs to have to cover an aircraft is alive and well!! God Bless!!

[@sideshowbob5237]

Who on earth could dislike this. I watched it twice for the technical content. Hopefully the young lady's excellent craft skills and evident work ethic bring in a steady flow of work and generate a good living. Who would watch rubbish (UK) TV when KZbin brings us stuff like this?

[@dave7200]

This very hard working young lady must have done this several times before. It really looks like shes a pro and very pleasing to see such a young person taking such pride and working so hard at a task. Well done!! Be proud as well you should be!

[@SURF-kb6nz]

Гордиться можно когда за работу нормальные деньги платят, а самое главное когда твоя работа тебе счастье несёт☝️

[@jiffibay]

is so nice to see a young girl in the today's days working so hard and so well 👍

[@bretmuldner]

I always loved doing the fabric! It always looks so good....

[@captpbiswas]

I really appreciate your work of perfection and your skill... Good luck

[@v12tommy]

Wow, you make that look so easy. I'm glad to see young people like me taking on a project like that.

[@igorsanchez408]

Love to see such craftsmanship. Perfect young lady.

[@bohartzapprentice2574]

Holy smokes she is skilled!!!!! Absolutely beautiful work!!!!

[@stefanmargraf7878]

Most amazingly: she did it without gloves! She is able to work so precise and without spilling the epoxy around or on her hands!

[@BruceBusby]

Great job. Your attention to detail makes me think I'd be very comfortable flying an aircraft that you have worked on

[@dnick1981]

I love a good timelapse. And anything plane related. And it is always satisfying watching someone who has mastered a skill.

[@Reaper4367]

Bloody good job there! Cheers for sharing.

[@danafield4696]

Beautiful job and a eye for detail . Wonderful craftsmanship !

[@sfcmathews32]

I like the way you keep your shop tidy. It says a lot about your character and attention to detail.

Wow. That was fantastic! Thanks for the video.

[@truetourtillott8288]

That is oddly mesmerizing.

[@anelon]

Very well done. Thanks for posting.

[@Ripper13F1V]

Great attention to detail. I was once told covering was a lost art. Well, if it was, you found it!

[@raylarkin5004]

What could be more satisfying than a start to finish complete process of a detail necessary piece of work on you tube! And being a dad of 3 grown women I certainly enjoy that she is so skilled. Great video! 👍

[@philup4947]

Lots of skill to make it look easy beautiful work

[@rcdogmanduh4440]

One of those things in life that are just nice to watch being done, great vid!

[@dukainmanning7246]

Outstanding work!!!!

[@ThalassTKynn]

I don't think I've ever seen this process from start to finish in such detail before. Kinda fascinating.

[@donaldmccombs5566]

That was amazing to watch, now I wanna do it.

[@stephenwissel7902]

You are a true artist. Nicely done.

[@dr1llb1t8]

[@aaronolsavsky3060]

Absolutely incredible!!

[@AkPacerPilot]

Truly awesome work.

[@danielburke6536]

That what therapeutic to watch, first time seeing fabric being applied to a real aircraft.

[@jayfleming6101]

That was super kewl to watch! Beautiful Job...You definitely take pride in your work.

[@Heathfx5]

So satisfying seeing how crisp the fabric looks after running the iron over it!

[@tisoy909]

Awesome! It must be the best feeling when you put your love into a machine like that. A machine that you can fly in too.

[@groomlake51]

Her craftsmanship is unreal😲 no joke them are some very skilled hands. Very impressive

[@danturner57]

Awesome! I never really thought about doing this myself.

[@Jude13able]

Wow this bring back memories for me back in my airframe class.

[@TheRealChetManley]

She is a pro! She makes it look easy lol. When I am ready to build in a few years I would like to have someone as talented as you do this part for me.

[@kevpf]

Thank you so much for the video! You have given me hope that I can do the same. Great work and I look forward to more!!!

[@seantheberge5456]

Wow! your really good at this, good work!

[@R1Kyle]

Fabulous work, really nice and neat on the pinkings! I look forward to seeing the rest of the build! I hope this is your own plane!

Wow, very thorough job

[@Bytheocean]

Wow that was amazing, very good job!

[@godbluffvdgg]

Wow! She's an amazing builder..She's got a great niche business going on!

[@user-sz8tp4zu3n]

Simply amazing!!

[@bruceharrington1429]

What a professional covering expert! I've done my old Kitfox, and a friends J3/Pa11, and helped others with a Champ, and a friend who finished Christen Eagles and other special projects after I retired from McDonald Douglas as a Senior Systems Analyst(software Engineer!). None of my work looked as good as yours! You rank right up there with the Gal at Culver Props who makes custom wood propeller blades.

[@zeto4u]

So much attention to even the smallest step. Thanks it was really a pleasure watching you put so much Love in what you did.

[@bluehornet6752]

I'm an A&P who has covered a number of aircraft components using the STITS (Polyfiber) process. You did an AMAZING job! Strong work, and thanks for the memory jog...as I haven't done it for a number of years.

[@j.vincenttaylor8916]

Very cool. Thanks for sharing.

[@de.davids196]

Great video...you make it look so easy

[@lorenzodunn3226]

Excellent film footage and soundtrack.

[@jeffreyshingleton6023]

Feel the Teal..........great video

[@retiredtom1654]

Wonderful to watch young people doing good work. We hear far too much negative, so the good things help us to know the world is better than the news would have it. That being said, I, like "eyeeye" wrote, keep the fresh air around you. That dope is a killer to our liver, lungs and other parts. Fly safely! Oh, by the way, nice looking airplane!

[@JMTosses]

Well done - I'm gonna show this to my 5 year old son who discovered planes as his new favourite video addiction. He loves to make planes from any material but currently mostly legos, duplos and magnetic bricks. He'll be blown away watching you make a plane. Awesome! Thanks for sharing and great job! Cheers! JM

[@SVSky]

Beautiful work.

[@Islandgunguy]

You do outstanding work. When I do my build I hope I can do as good a job as you. Keep up the great videos. If you have the time to make a how to video , the steps and your tricks would be awesome. Thanks for posting.

[@DumbledoreMcCracken]

Beautiful work

[@MrPILOTSTEVE59]

You can be proud of you skills young lady. I would love to see it fly.

[@jamietyler4099]

[@drewalsup9200]

Right on, this is like building balsa wood and tissue paper model planes on a full size scale, so cool

[@modelleg]

That's just freakin awesome.

[@svesom]

Nice Work! You are making it fine!

[@davealley2761]

Having done an Avid Flyer, Citabria, And Acrosport2, I can say you are for real!

[@royalmaster203]

very nice job, you sure know how to cover an airframe, really like the rotating frame jig, sure made covering easier.

[@hunt4fish]

It is an art isn't it? Have covered a few myself using same system and it grows on you! Great workmanship!

[@richarrrdj]

thanks for sharing all your hard work. Hope it lasts a long, long time and that you can pass this superstol down to your daughter (some day.)

[@BigFiveJack]

Our Intrepid Craftswoman KNOWS Her Trade!!! Holy Mackerel That Was Impressive As All Get Out!

[@MarioCavicchi]

last year i've assisted a my friend in a same job on the same airplane (a kitfox i presume) and It's not as easy as it looks. Well done ... very good job.

[@johnb4183]

That rotary jig has to be a real back / time saver , excellent work!

[@iapplyufly]

They are the best!!

[@captlarry-3525]

One very skilled young woman !
