This is the 1/7th Gold Edition kit. Not wanting to build the many piece, 1/2 balsa and 1/2 fiberglass cowl supplied with the kit, I called Fiberglass Specialties to order a full fiberglass cowl. I was told that their full cowl "goes all the way back to the leading edge of the wing." So its quite long, to say the least.

Has anyone used this cowl and what is their opinion of the look and functionality?

Thanks.
