Well Desertpig one thing that will come good from this abuse for the rest us is that we now know that airframe is very strong.
I absolutely ABUSED it this morning! I have never done 10 full throttle snaps in a row... and a full throttle knife snap!
Keep up the testing i'am glad to know that this thing will take that kinda abuse. When you get done abusing it if it is still together
Maybe you could call Stans Fiber glass and get a cowling for it. Maybe a cowling off a WH edge will fit? There has to be a cowling off some edge that will fit this plane.
