Check out the detail on this Carden 300. This is ALL HAND CUT MONOKOTE. No vinyl cutter or trims here. It is all done by hand. I believe the cowl and wheel pants are also Monokoted. I do not remember that, but i know of others that this builder has done, he has used Monokote on the cowl and wheel pants. I saw this plane at Toledo a few years ago and was in AWE. All of Faye Stilley's work still amazes me. The amount of patience it takes to complete things like this is astounding.
