Looks great!

Is there enough space around the air filter to keep it from contacting the cowl during vibs and max power? Check for dents around the filter. Really bad for the carb mounts.

Its for right hand turns only! I probably wouldnt have to take it off to fold wings but it is so close to hitting I didnt want to take any chances. Randy

Very nice! I can't wait to hear the flying report; it is going to be a great bush plane. Are you going to do the test flights?
