Hi All,
I had a super frustrating day yesterday evening that was topped off with lots of shouted 4 letter words !!
I was fitting the cowl on my RV10 and despite measuring twice and following the plans, I made a mistake with my pen marks and have cut the cowl too short by an inch all around, top and bottom.
I am planning to fit Skybolt ? turn fasteners.
I was going to sand the inside of the cowl and then lay down some new fibreglass cloth and try and blend it all in. Sand and then recut and refit.
Any advice or tips on the way forward would be much appreciated.
In addition, any tips on fitting the sky bolt fasters would be appreciated. My cowl is dark grey in colour so I cant shine a light through it to find the holes. Is there another way to do it?
Thanks in advance
Amer
