I am putting 1" holes in the bottom of the wing. It gives me just enough room to get a wrench in and tighten the hinges nuts. I know Jim C. made up his own removable covers for the holes, but I found nice plastic white plugs that snap into place and make an almost invisible cover. We hope to be making a trip near you in the next few weeks. Would it be all right to stop in and see your project again?

Been putting the west system on the interior of the wings. Hope to have them inclosed by next weekend. I have rooms for the guys here, at SAA, Urbana, hope you guys let me fly the Colt if I don't get the W-10 together. Harold Chaney, another W-10 builder and I plan on attending, as well as two Mustang II builders, who are in the EAA Chapter here.

Has anyone successfully (i.e. safely) run their tailpipe(s) essentially parallel to the airflow below the belly to create less turbulence and to take advantage of the available jet thrust from the exhaust gases exiting parallel to the flight path? What are some typical measurements and angles at the exit end of the pipes that existing installations use? Jim McCulley (Seeing light ahead in the tunnel)
