Hey Edd
Mine only "just" fit .
The engine was all the way back with the included mount.
and the cowl was about 4mm sliped back over the fuselage.
But still.....there was 5-6mm between the spinner and front of the cowl...
I have seen others glue some blocks on the firewall and then put the cowl on flush with the fuse..
Ive lost my PC-9
I took down a glider at high speed........ and broke up in mid air.
looked cool, but what a mess....man...it flew well
