Douwe: not trying to distract you from your appointed rounds, just taking thisopportunity to post an update having to do with the cooling eyebrows on my A75,here:http://www.flysquirrel.net/piets/engine ... s.htmlAlso to say that in moving all my stuff to the new hangar, I came across the poster-boardtemplates that Corky used to make the eyebrows on 41CC, lo, these manyyears ago. I can mail them out to anyone who might want them; reply offline.--------Oscar ZunigaMedford, ORAir Camper NX41CC "Scout"A75 powerRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Mon, 12 Nov 2012 00:07:18 -0800

Douwe,I first used dead soft 3003. after those cracked numerous times, I went to=BC hard 5052, which doesn=92t look as nice but has held up much better. I gotall my material from ACS.Jack PhillipsNX899JPSmith Mountain Lake, Virginia _____

Any reason one couldn't make cooling eyebrows out of carbon fiber and usesteel brackets for attaching to the hot surfaces? Isn't carbon fibersignificantly more resistant to cracking or am I wrong here?Douwe________________________________________________________________________________Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: composite cooling eyebrows
