Plane ID please...
 
Looks like a Sig Hog Bipe, but I am not certain. Anyways, she is missing the cowl and I'd like to find one, but need to know what she is :)
Thanks

While overall it does look like a Hog Bipe, the interplane struts look a little bit off. Hard to tell in the pictures you posted.

Anyway, if it is a Hog Bipe it doesn't come with a cowl, but rather cowl cheeks when it's built.

But, you can get an aftermarket cowl from Fiberglass Specialties. http://www.fiberglassspecialtiesinc.com/catalog.htm

I also think that FIbertech-n-more have one as well, but their website is down right now so I can't verify that. http://www.fibertechnmore.com/ . Their phone number is on the website and you can give them a call

Is it a .60size plane? Could be a Smith Miniplane

Should've been more specific. It is a 40 size plane. Seems similar in size to the Nitroplanes ultimate. Has a Saito 50. I was checking out that site above and I would have no idea what to order...Hoping someone knows what it is so maybe I can find the correct cowl...

Go look at the Sig Smith Miniplane. It does come with a cowl so you whould be able to get one for it.

Thank you so much...

Smith Miniplane was my first impression as well...not 100% on that though.

My first impression was the Sig Smith Miniplane also.

I hope so as I found someone with a new cowl and wheel pants for it. Just sent payment earlier. She's going to look so pretty all dolled up nice :)
