I just noticed that update this morning. It was interesting to note that they had to remove part of a wall to get the fuselage section out. :shock: Makes me wonder how they got it in there in the first place. :?

Through that same section of wall. The building is brick and you could see where they'd taken a section out and filled it with stucco to get the plane in. When they took it out, they just knocked out that stucco section.
