Power Museum Avro Vulcan and KC-97 static display aircrafts.
3.2 All bird proofing will be removed, and any remnants of nests/wildlife will be removed/disposed of, and new bird proofing installed prior to painting.
3.3 Prior to cleaning and paint removed, the area under the aircrafts will be tarped to contain paint chips for proper disposal. Surface contamination will be removed through use of high-pressure washer utilizing water only. After sufficient drying time, existing paint will be scraped and sanded to feather edge, peeled or otherwise defective paint and to properly scuff surface in preparation for paint application. Care will be taken by contractor during task in order to protect ground underneath and around aircraft from negative environmental impact. At the end of each day or prior to a rain event, paint chips collected on the tarps will be swept up and placed into drums. Tarps will be reused to the greatest extent possible to reduce the amount of waste generated. All paint chips, paint, rags and debris generated will be managed as directed by the Base Hazardous Waste Program Manager. Contractor will meet with Program Manager prior to the start of any activities. If any corrosion/metal deterioration is discovered, it will be removed and repaired prior to paint application.

The aircraft engine inlet covers and landing gear will be repainted as well. The windows will also be prepped and painted and have the same polyurethane clear coat as the rest of the aircraft. Vinyl stickers will not be used unless approved by curator. Unpainted surfaces (landing, taxi lights, navigation, and position lights, etc.) will be masked off and protected from paint overrun.
