Status: offline 		Greeting to all the Skyraider builders. I just wanted to share a few pics. of my Skyraider. I decieded to go with a Fuji 24cc gas. I had to cut more of the cowl than I wanted but it doesn't look that bad. The cockpit turned out pretty nice. Will start on the wings next. Till next time.

Great looking cockpit install.... is that a kit or scratch built ?

Any photos of your SKYRAIDER with the cowling on showing how much you had to cut off?

-GREAT JOB!

Status: offline 		Very nice cockpit. Some pics of mine with MVVS 26/Evo 26 (excuse the poor quality), a very compact instalation. With the EI batt on top of the engine, no lead required, CG at 124 mm, AUW 5,8 Kg. Very nice flyer, no bad habits.. Sorry, no flying pics.

Status: offline 		The 3298/26 in the pic below. Although it's said that it reduces sligthy the power when compared with the Pitts style muffler, is not a problem in this particular setup.
