Hi, I'm David Mack. In 2006, I decided to build my own Van's Aircraft RV-7 200+ mph two seat homebuilt aluminum airplane and this is a log of the experience.

Cowl Sanding, Fiberglass (Firewall Forward)

Today I did a bunch more sanding on the cowl. Then I layed up a little fiberglass extension to the aft upper cowl to cover the gap to the top fuselage skin. The gap varied from around 1/32-3/32" and I wanted to bring it a bit closer.
