ALFIEV..........I have always wanted to know how that 38 would do in the Waco. I am only flying with a G23, but I love the way she flies. erans.............I have a little more cut out for ventilation out. I also don't have the cowl ring to block the hot air out, I use DuBro cowl mounts. After breaking the ring one day (and ruining the cowl) I changed. The only thing that I have done lately is to paint it Apple Red. Just masked off all of the black trim, scuffed her up with a pad, and shot her with some paint from Walmart. Doesn't look too bad (at least from six feet).
