Hello Matt

How did you install the balsa tunnel ?
Is it possible to install this composite tube shown in picture (diameter 50 mm, lenght 900 mm) ?

Claude,

I opened the belly and built the tunnel in place. The tunnel is rectangular. I used CA for the gluing.

I also built a cylindrical glass tube first.But once I tried putting it in and played with the pipe and header a little to figure out how it would work,it occurred to me that pipe installation to the header might be a problem. So I decided to scrub the glass for the balsa.

The way I have it now I can assemble the pipe and header first, off the plane, and install itfully assembled
