Can't wait to see the video of this puppy flying!
Excellent craftsmanship as usual, but it seems that every modification ADDS weight... just the opposite of what makes a plane fly better!
Would have been much easier just to lop off 2 inches from the back end of the cowl and save a lot of weight in the process.
Interpret this as a fun and good spirited conversation between to old flying friends at the field.
Bob,
Easier?
As in Easy? [:-]Are you for real? [
]From what you have seen of me on here, how many times have I done EASY?
I like the way the long cowl looks. So I chose not to cut it. I also like the way the cowl looks with the top and sides “vented” raised off the fuselage using my spacers.[8D]
It's all in fun. Thanks for the other comments and I am hoping to get this thing in the air soon. I was not able to touch it yesterday nor will I be able to today.
Later,
