Do you know if there much of a weight difference between those and stock streamlined aluminum?

From: "aviken" Excuse me, but is the picture of your mock-up? If so, I would just put wings on it and fly it . Good grief I don't think Uncle Tony intended for us to build a complete aircraft twice. My mock up was just a couple of pine 1x1 glued in the shape of a normal cockpit opening. I slipped it over my head and my shoulders fit so I busted it up and threw it in the stove, end of story.
