Fiberglass cowlings? Why not use metal? It's light, simple,
looks "antiquey", and there's no exposure to nasty
chemicals. The cowling I made for my Micro Mong is all
simple conicals except for the upper corners of the nose
bowl, which I cut out of a stainless steel salad bowl. If
any of you want photos, drop me an email and I'll send them
to you. This airplane hasn't flown yet, so I'd keep my mouth
shut if I hadn't heard of so many other builders doing
similar things successfully.
Larry the Micro Mong guy
PS. I really don't have anything against 'glass, if you like
to mess with that kind of stuff, but there are ways to do it
in metal that are not hard or time consuming, contrary to
rumor.

Hi all,
I'm new to the forum with some Model A engine questions.
I saw somewhere on the internet a couple of recommended Model A engine books but
can't remember where I saw the posting. Any guesses?
I live in Minnesota, any recommendations as to where to find a good core motor?
Thanks,
Matt

great but was wondering about the Matco, which is lighter. I might have a
ccess to one so I was wondering what the feedback is on it.
