Default RE: Piper Cub fuel Dot location ?

I did. I decided to follow my original plans for this model and put things first where they need to be and then adjust for aesthetics. That said I decided to put it on the left side of the cowl behind the dummy engine.<div></div><div>The location of the fuel tank dictated it needed be in front of the firewall. Since im using the three line system , the dot is best installed above the centerline of the fuel tank. Behind the dummy engine fulfills both requirements and still allows me to install a dummy scale gas cap in the correct location.</div><div></div><div>I don't have picture since I'm still painting the cowl ( what a disaster that has been) but I will post some when its done</div>
