    Default Thickness of Cowl

    Step 183 on page 74 of the fuselage assembly has you attach the fabric attach angle. Ive held off on this because I don’t know how far to offset it outboard. The manual says slightly. Does anyone have a measurement of their cowl in this area? Or know about how far to offset the fabric attach angle?

    I had the same question. The angle protrudes about 1/8” to 3/16” past the tube it attaches to. It needs to to match the door surround. However, when fitting my cowl, I’m installing a packer to match the external profile.
