Hi Guys,

I just finished a TF P-51 I picked up from a friend. It was an RTC that was glassed and partly primed. It had the Spychalla cowl blended in. Looks great, but I was worried I wouldn't be able to replace the chin if anything happened. I did some searches and nothing came up. Leo, are they still being made? I'm running a DLE-55. Tight fit. The JTEC muffler designed for the Aeroworks P-51 just barely fits with nothing hanging out. It hasn't flown yet, but Saturday looks to be the big day. I'd feel a lot better if I knew I could get another chin if it got dinged, or came loose during flight.
Nick, I still make the cowls and you can get a separate lower cowl should something happen. Your airplane looks fantastic! I love seeing customer completions. My e-mail is [email protected] should you need something.
