In an update to an earlier post "Decision time - Our partnership decided to
sell our '77 Warrior II while it still had about 400 hrs left before
TBO....." The oil analysis came back and it didn't show any glaring
problems so we have decided to keep it and fly it on through TBO.

Since we are going to keep it for a while, we need to get it painted.
Murmer is down here by us at AXH but they are pricey. I can't see putting a
12K paint job on a 35K plane. There are a few shops in Mena, AR that have
offered some pretty good quotes. Does anybody have any experience with
them? I'm looking for recommendations or horror stories about paint shops
in the area. Anywhere within about 600nm of Houston is reasonably local.

Thanks,
