Default RE: Chip Hyde's Vision 3D

It was raining hard today so I went to the work shop to align my DA-50 on the Vision. I'm using the Slimline muffler so I wanted to mount the engine inverted. I had noted that Chip has the engine canted to the side for the header etc.

I lined the cowl up with the fuselage and then decided to make up a tool to find the center of the thrust line on the fire wall. It made it real easy to mark the firewall and then extrapolate the stand-off holes. Then the rain stopped (VBG)

I think the pictures describe it best.

Regards,

Eric.
