Boom Crash Opera - The Cover Up

[Wombat]

"Boom Crash Opera" (BCO) has been around for a time now, serving an early and distinguished career as Wombat's first Trainer, but suffering many many mishaps and lots of rebuilds.

BCO changed hands a short time back and took up residence in the hanger of gp9 who had shortly before lost his Trainer in tragic circumstances.

And following a recent landing that could perhaps be described as a little uncontrolled, and at a velocity and landing angle not conducive to further flight for an extended period, gp9 has set out on the long track of a total front end rebuild, in the hopes of once again returning this proud stalwart to it's rightful place in the skies above Strathalbyn.

However, the current dilema is what to do about a covering. Should it be totally recovered in a full new outfit, or should the surviving back end be left in it's traditional Boomerang 40 colours as a sign of it's proud heritage?

Any comments?
