Boy are you stupid, Dan. You forgot to paint that cowling before installingthe leather and lacing it in place. Now you've got to take it off, paint itand re-lace the leather. Your easy method may make that an easy task, butI'd just as soon stick a fork in my eye as to have to re-lace my cockpitcoaming.Just kidding - looks great!Jack PhillipsNX899JPRaleigh, NC _____

That is one good-looking guy alright, but I think he's the guy who toldDorothy to follow the yellow brick road. _____

Dan; I'm actually kind of surprised that you sit so low in the cockpit. I don'thave my airplane here at the moment or I'd go out and check, but it seems likeI sit quite a bit higher in the cockpit than your picture shows. Your cockpitlooks like a GREAT fit!--------Oscar ZunigaSan Antonio, TXAir Camper NX41CCRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Quell those fears- shoulder interference with coamingleathe

I've got to agree with that... I'm pretty sure I'll be sticking waaay out, butdang it would be cool to be tucked down in there like you are. Might actuallymake it seem like "getting in" rather than "putting it on." taildrags wrote:> Dan; I'm actually kind of surprised that you sit so low in the cockpit.
