Finish Kit

March 26, 2006

9 hours logged

I had to make some clearance on the lower part of the cowling because of the Skybolt flange. The area where the cowl gets thicker interfered a bit. I sanded it away to make sure that the cowling sat snugly.

Next week, I should have the new snorkel from Van’s, so I will make some progress with the baffles and some cowl inlet trimming.
