Hey, thanks. I cannot take much credit for the good looks. The plane does most of it. This cowl material is so flexible I can leave the muffler tight and still get the cowl on and off. I won't say it is not a bit of a trick to do it, but it can be done. If the muffler is loose it goes on real easy.

I had a local sign making shop cut the lettering and I applied it. These sign shops can do just about anything nowadays. Putting the lettering on is easy. I just wet the wings down with soapy water so the lettering can be moved around until I like the position and then I just use a lettering squeegy (spelling?) to get the water out from under the letters, let it dry for a few hours, and peel off the covering. I really like the looks. Can't take credit for the idea though. Got that earlier in this thread.

Sorry about the grass being green. One of the benefits of living in Florida. Gets very hot in the summer though.

Can't wait to see your finished bird. Ron[8D]
