    Subject: Re: Front Bow @ windshield & cowling intersection
    --> Tailwind-List message posted by: "Jim and Donna Clement" <168x@merr.com> The side bows are flush with the cross 5/8" tube. The center bow is 2 1/2" higher in the center at the firewall. Ben raised his side bows up one inch at the front therefore making the center bow 3 1/2" above the 5/8" cross tube. This makes for a better slope of the windshield. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bill newkirk" <bilnewkirk@msn.com> Subject: Re: Tailwind-List: Front Bow @ windshield & cowling intersection > --> Tailwind-List message posted by: "Bill newkirk" <bilnewkirk@msn.com> > > Jim; > I am refering to the side bows. > > Bill Newkirk > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Jim and Donna Clement" <168x@merr.com> > To: <tailwind-list@matronics.com> > Subject: Re: Tailwind-List: Front Bow @ windshield & cowling intersection > > > > --> Tailwind-List message posted by: "Jim and Donna Clement" > <168x@merr.com> > > > > Bill, Are you talking the center windshield bow, the side bows or the bow > > that crosses over the firewall side to side? > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > From: "Bill newkirk" <bilnewkirk@msn.com> > > To: <tailwind-list@matronics.com> > > Subject: Re: Tailwind-List: Front Bow @ windshield & cowling intersection > > > > > > > --> Tailwind-List message posted by: "Bill newkirk" <bilnewkirk@msn.com> > > > > > > Jim, > > > I did not explain myself well.
