Ray very nice! Any details or pictures of your cowling would be helpful, it looks
great. Is that a "pan" for the nose?
Thank you for sharing!

I think the radiator I'm using for test purposes is off a Toyota pickup that my
son was working on. It is too wide for my taste to use permantly

Oscar,
How about a radiator set up like this? I saw this picture at the Hiller Museum
a few weeks ago.

Aw, c'mon Terry... twin radiators like that would destroy the Air Camper's sleek

Jack,
Yes, that's an aluminum frying pan that just happened to work out. I think it
was $12.00! The cowling just worked out pretty well and is very solidly attached
to the fuselage with only four AN-3 bolts and maybe six .5" screws. I hope
it stays there!
I am following the plans as closely as possible and am running the aileron "idle
cable" above the upper wing today. I have some reservations about the cable
and four cable guides being about 1/2" above the upper wing surface all along
the rear spar from mid aileron to mid aileron. It could certainly disrupt the
smooth flow of air over the wing foil. But I'm used to worrying about such things
on shorter, sleeker wings (ala the Waiex). Bernard only used this method
on the SkyScout and put the upper aileron cable within the wing on the AirCamper.
I see many AirCamper builders and the J-3 even add an aero shaped boot over
this cable where exits the wing to the aileron bell crank. But I guess all other
SkyScouts fly with it on top of the wing! What do you guys think?
Thanks,
Ray
SkyScout in progress
