Thanks Mark Glad your moving at brisk pace down there I made the mistake of retireing, now I can't seem to find time to work on the plane. I just finnished up the joggle that the cowling will mate to. I need to order a canopy so I can get on with the turtle deck. Thinking about a RV-1 canopy and make it a slider. This is a KR 1.5 Ss with a 28' span. The Corvair engine is finished setting on a stand at the end of shop.
This template is for a Sterwart Headwind I saved from the junk man it set seven years with gas in it. It will live again. Plane is in great shape fabric is nice I can not for the life of me understand why the fellow could not sell it. I got it for hauling it out of the storage locker !!
