Default RE: Enlarged Zirioli Turbinator 125% size

I had some 1/2 inch pink foam left over from insulating my metal garage doors, so I glued some of the pieces together and cut out a side view profile of the fuse. I then took this pink turbinator out to my van and trial fitted it to see what I would need to do to be able to haul the real one. It will fit but it will have to sit in a rack inverted (unless I pull the rear seat out).

Finished the inlets and got the retract and brake valves mounted. Joined the horizontal stab halves and glass taped the joint. Probably going flying tomorrow so no more progress until next weekend when I hope to be able to start glassing.
