Really nice work, Gerhard. Mine is a Patrol. Plans called out .032" for cowl panels, which I made. No problems on this end.
What's the big aluminum structure in front of your plane?

Great progress - you'll be thrilled to be so far advanced!
I really like your unique take on the "mouse door" challenge. Will you be using seaplane style doors?
You can get away with 0.025 for the bottom cowl and cowl doors without any issues. But the top cowl is a much flatter panel, it needs 0.032 or else it will drum badly.
I have used 0.025 all around except the top cowl, which is 0.032.Last edited by Battson; 06-10-2018, 04:53 PM.
