There is no curve to the bottom. It sits flush with the cowling. It kind of looks like it was heated and deformed. Either that or trimmed when you removed it. Neither the tooling or the finished exit ramp have a recess. Why did you remove them? I can sell you a new set. ________________________________ From: discover <923te@att.net> Sent: Fri, April 29, 2011 8:08:39 PM Subject: TeamGrumman-List: Jaguar Cowl Air Exit Ramps While making repairs on my Jaguar Cowl I noticed that the Air Exit Ramps have a shape unlike what I expected. Where the ramp sides attach to the lower cowl skin they are concave, that is they curve inward. See attached pictures. Just curious as to why?

I just laid the cowling inverted on a flat glass and noticed that it was not flat like expected. Could it be that it follows the contour of the outer skin where you raised it above the rest of the skin to cause a pressure decrease? That is what it looks like from here. Try laying a straight edge on yours. I bet you'll find the same thing. If not then my cowl really has a lot more defects than I thought.

All of the cowlings are the same. There are some pics of the cooling ramp. You've done something. The pics you have are not how the cowling was sent. ________________________________ From: discover <923te@att.net> Sent: Wed, May 4, 2011 11:19:56 AM Subject: TeamGrumman-List: Re: Jaguar Cowl Air Exit Ramps Nothing was removed or trimmed.
