Cowling Frame

CowlingFrame1

After we received the spinner, it is clear how much space we need between the spinner plate and the nose bowl. So we could start constructing the cowling frame. I used 0.032 angles (8 of them) for the frame.

The nose cowl has a 30 mm narrow strip from 0.032 aluminum installed around the flange. It is not so easy to build this strip, I needed my shrinker/stretcher to get the right shape of the strip. On this strip, later on the cowling doors will sit.
