    Subject: Re: Cowling Construction
    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.

    From: "MF" <ferrari@lakenet.com>
    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 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=152531#152531

    Subject: tailwheel
    Is anybody flying with the 6" Matco tailwheel? I have a Scott and it works 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. Thanks. And I guess I'll have to post the "Santa and the FAA checkride" em ail here pretty soon...Oscar ZunigaSan Antonio, TXmailto: taildrags@hotmail .comwebsite at http://www.flysquirrel.net
