I was more worried about internally not being able to peelply (if i could ev
en figure out the layups through the filler) and ensure there were no margin
al edges why may have ended up as loose bits down the road. :)

ah yes well there is that too which has me a little concerned...i have been
wire brushing and sanding the inside to try to ensure that there are no
loose bits.
furthermore this was one of the reasons for keeping the finger filters as
opposed to using straight through bulkhead fittings for the outlets
Actually wrt the inside layups i was refering to the inside of the cockpit
module ....
