Current (May '03) issue of MAN has some good notes on doing a 'glass cowl in the Sparrowhawk construction article.
- just that it was built up from wood (balsa).
Why? Unfamiliarity with 'glass? It's quick, easy, cheap, and fuelproof. All good reasons not to use wood. At least IMHO.
Just finished a fiberglass cowl.
. Tried wood, turned out foul.
Haw.
