28th September 2009 - The Cowl arrives

I've been away for a couple of weeks so no real progress on the build but today the cowling arrived from the US. I decided to go with the glass fibre cowling produced by Brian Alley at http://www.carbonfibercomposites.net/ and it's a beautiful piece of work. Very light but strong and lovely lines that blend the square front of the fuselage into the round disc behind the propeller spinner. This will now stay in it's shipping crate for a few months until I'm ready to assemble to the fuselage - hope it fits!
