17/05/2024 - Sam James Cowling arrived

A new box arrived, it's always fun receiving new goodies in the workshop. Although it will take a while before this can be iinstalled, I'm glad that I finally took some decisions on FFW side.
This time it's the Sam James Long Cowl that arrived. Very nice and helpfull people at Sam James and they were very patient with the many questions I had.

After unboxing, I stored the cowling in the upper room.

I also ordered the plenum and the MK2 air filter as I will have ram air horizontal induction.

 Her's my shippment list.

 This is the content of the second box. Some neoprene and more plexi glass items together with the alumnium rings for the forward side of the cowling intakes.
