That staining underneath does not look so good. Is it the Florida 'growth'?
Hope the internal structure is OK.

It could use a little elbow grease. With so many aircraft to look after I'm sure it will get it's turn. It does not look like it has flown in quite some time. I wish I could have seen the inside but the entire a/c is roped off.
I was surprised to see what looks like some corrosion on the bottom left wing hopefully it is only skin deep and not structural. It looks fast just sitting there. Just about as rare as they come.
