Sweet job JCB!

I'm still struggling with tossin' a pilot in these things - If I could only find Pinky and The Brain ...

Btw MasterAlex - what leading edge treatment are you planning? Gonna wrap the forward orange ray down over the edge and overlap the black and white panels? We fly just east of the front range of the Rockies. Experienced fliers are hammering on me to make sure that I have a good horizontal strip on the leading edge to aid sighting the plane on west-to-east passes as we transition from a sky background to a mountain-like background. I have a cub yellow stripe across both stab and wing leading edges. Rumor has it that it will work great for spotting the plane.

And I just picked up my Hog Bipe .......... now the planning begins

And just received a SIG Smith Mini cowl. According to SIG, the Smith Mini's firewall is identical to the Hog Bipe - we shall see how well it hides a Super Tigre G90 ...
